fwiw, the .git files are being backed... but..

1. You have to check "show hidden files" in the web ui (or the app) when restoring and

2. If you restore a folder that has a '.git' folder inside of it (by checking it in the ui) but you DID NOT check "show hidden files", then the '.git' (or any other hidden file/folder) does not get restored.

Which is.. unexpected.. if I check a folder to restore, I expect *everything* inside of it to be restored.

But the dropbox folder is, in fact, not there. Which is a surprise to me as well. :(
