In fact this is more an enhancement request than a real bug (in fact is has 
been designed to do just that) but as I didn't found a way to differentiate a 
file and a directory named core, to act differently upon them. Ignoring core 
files but not core directories would be a saner default behaviour.

Summary:  Directory named core should not violate default naming conventions

Original Submission:  a lot of projects use directories named "core" and those 
should not violate default naming conventions as they are not core files of 
crashed programs but directory containing source files for the "core" of the 
project.

--------------------REPRODUCE---------------------
# mkdir core
# tla add core
# tla tree-lint
These files violate naming conventions:

core

This is even worse than I first thought, because it prevents tla import (which 
exits with the same error message as tree-lint)

This should default to be a warning at most, IMHO.
