Excerpt from my name cache file (2nd entry in the "mappings" table):

  {
   ["familyname"]="Asana Math",
   ["filename"]={ "Asana-Math.otf.svn-base", false },
   ["fontname"]="Asana-Math",
   -- ...

Also, running from the svn tree the last but one line of output reads:

luaotfload | 1647 fonts in the database

and on a normal installation it is:

luaotfload | 1252 fonts in the database

So I guess the extension filtering code needs to be fixed.

Even if the extension is enough to rule the files out in the svn case, I still
think it's a good idea to exclude known vcs directories, since:
- we (at least I) don't know about all other vcs'es;
- it save some time anyway.
