I think there are some > other files that we could always exclude as well, like ".dir-locals.el", > ".github", "*-tests.el", and ".travis.yml". `.dir-locals.el`, `.github`, and `.travis.yml` are usually very small, so I don't see much benefit in skipping them (and for `.dir-locals.el` I can see a clear harm since users might still look at (or even edit) the installed files and the local vars might be useful). Same for the Makefiles. I think rather than "are they useful" the criteria should be "are they harmful". E.g. I objected to the addition of a copy of the GPLv3 text because in those packages it takes more space than the rest of the package, which I consider harmful. Stefan
