      Subtask of http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTCREATORBUG-1361 (Qt Creator checking for version control
      directories .git/.hg and qmake.cache and accidentally creating them when used with autofs ):

      The following code causes autofs to create a directory called ".willi":

      QDir dir (".");

do {
if (QFileInfo(dir,".willi" ).exists())

{ qDebug() << dir.absolutePath(); return 1; }
} while (dir.cdUp());
