Cannot watch recursively inside dotfolder (.git/**/*)  #331

Hi,

I am trying to develop a custom archiver service using gulp-watch and 7zip-min. I am lookig for a way to watch recursively a list of paths (to folders or specific files) which could contain hidden files/folders or even dotfiles/dotfolders.

An example is the folder in which I keep all my git repositories :
C:/Users/{user-id}/.gitglobal/{project-name}/.git/....

So for this one, I add to my watched list the following globs :
'C:/Users/{user-id}/.gitglobal/**/*', 'C:/Users/{user-id}/.gitglobal/**/.*', 'C:/Users/{user-id}/.gitglobal/**/.**/**/*', 'C:/Users/{user-id}/.gitglobal/**/.**/**/.*'

and the following options for gulp-watch
return watch(backupList, { ignoreInitial: false, read: false, dot: true, base: 'c:/' })
But the files deeper than C:/Users/{user-id}/.gitglobal/{project-name}/.git/XXX are never detected by the gulp-watch, like :
C:/Users/{user-id}/.gitglobal/Project1/.git/logs/refs/heads and so on..

I really want my service to be as generic as possible, and be able to provide any kind of path to it.

FYI, I tried to output a minimatch result of the file given in example before, and it matches one of my globs. What did I missed ?

Thank you.
