@Ramhound, hmm... because .git cannot be renamed... nor .gitignore... nor .travis.yml, etc. and that it is require to archive these files for this shell script?

If you have marked a file as hidden then the process cannot see it unless you esclated its own permission so it can see it. But that sort of makes the fact the file is hidden pointless so why don't you just not make the files hidden | |
