osx: override default exclude filter for pkgbuild
To quote `man 1 pkgbuild`:
--filter filter-expression
By default, --root will include the entire contents of the
given root-path in the package payload, except for any .svn
or CVS directories, and any .DS_Store files. You can override
these default filters by specifying one or more --filter
options. Each filter-expression is an re_format(7)
``extended'' expression: any path in the root which matches
any of the given expressions will be excluded from the pack-
age payload. (Note that specifying even one --filter inhibits
the default filters, so you must respecify the default fil-
ters if you still want them to be used.)
It turns out the default filter these days *also* includes .git and
.hg. Notice how that filter expression is a regular expression? That
(presumably unintentionally) prevents a file named "chg" or "_hg" from
getting included in the distribution. Many many thanks to spectral@
for trying to include a _hg file which led us to figure this bug out.
Bug filed with Apple for this as rdar://problem/32437369, mentioning
both the gap in documentation and the wrong defaults.
