Its only temporary.
If we succeed implementing what jb suggested then there will be a
sdr (demuxer/input) module in git master. And a new libavradio
that module in git master will still need the testfiles, so when
the module is added then these --exclude cases become unneeded


> Would it not be simpler to just delete the sdr folder?

on the client, it would cause it to be redownloaded,
on the server, it would break libavradio, and especially when
we are trying to refactor the code to move some of it into a seperate libavradio
(which i dont yet know how easy that will be)
it will be important to ensure that nothing breaks when stuff is refactored
so i would prefer to leave this on the server for ease of testing for everyone

thx
