`deleteOrphaned` Option Doesn't Delete Hidden Files

See original GitHub issue

🐞 Describe the bug

With deleteOrphaned enabled, files beginning with . are not deleted from the synced directory.

📚 To Reproduce

Create the following folder structure:

Sync Repository

docker/
    Dockerfile

Target Repository

docker/
    .env

Sync the entire docker/ folder with deleteOrphaned set to true.

💡 Expected behavior

deleteOrphaned should delete every file within the target repo which isn’t also in the sync repo. In the example above, .env is missed.

I concur. From a user of this action’s perspective, the ignoring of hidden files was rather unexpected. My vote would be to have hidden files included by default unless someone has a use-case where this behavior wouldn’t be desirable.
