> As John I really do not get why all filenames containing `/.` should be
filtered. But it's clearly a problem for me if I have to install Sage in
my home directory, in a .Sage subfolder, and find out that I am unable to
test Sage's code in parallel !
Well, rename the folder to something not starting with a dot, then run
`sage -tp ...` or `make ptest[long]` or whatever... ;-)
The exception raised if no files to test remain should get fixed though,
giving a reasonable message instead. [We could also issue a warning
(once!) if `SAGE_ROOT` or some specified directory's path contains a
hidden directory.]
The filtering really needs an overhaul, but probably on another ticket...
(For example, the whole tree below a hidden directory should get pruned
[once], instead of testing each file's path -- at least by default. See
the `XXX`s for similar issues...)
