                 Key: FELIX-1871
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-1871
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: fileinstall-2.0.4
            Reporter: Peter Lawrey


The file installer find our .svn directory and builds a .svn.jar from it every second.
It also checks it every second to see if its a valid JarFile and occasionally crashes the JVM (due to a bug reported to sun)
It would be better if hidden files/directories were ignored.  c.f. File.isHidden.

The workaround is to create a filter which ignored files starting with a '.'
