Hello and thank you for developing Stow. I just began using version 2.2.2 with Perl v5.24.1 and noticed the stow directory name is not allowed to begin with a period (e.g. ".stow" as opposed to "stow"). Stow gives an error that reads "WARNING: skipping protected directory ." and immediately aborts operation. Is this intended behavior? If so, what is the rationale? I was unable to find any mention of "protected" directories in the man/info pages. Take care. Grady
