To fix this, I first tried to devise a way to detect whether a given
directory is a build directory. But that seemed pretty complicated.
Instead, I chose the simpler solution that we just enumerate the source
subdirectories that we know about (config, contrib, doc, src). That way
we can also remove the special handling to exclude the .git directory
and make the find command a bit simpler.
Meson looks for ${builddir}/meson-private/coredata.dat file to
understand if the directory is a build directory [1]. I am just
wondering if you tried this and found it complicated or did you try
something else.
I tried things along this line, but it's not easy to have a shell "find"
command handle that kind of logic.
