I can't see why it is 'magic' or > 'ugly' (why is an underscore ugly?) It just looks out of place in a directory of things that are otherwise short, carefully chosen one-word names. If it's not meant to be user-visible, I'd probably call it .sheepdog or something. More generally, I'm not a fan of this behaviour change, but can always patch it out again locally if there's otherwise consensus it's a good thing. Cheers, Chris. |
