Description

Bug Report

I have a folder on my project with some python files, when I try to specify mypy to run against it, it returns the message:

There are no .py[i] files in directory 'freshbuilds/slack_integration'

And yes I have files in there:

❯ ls -a freshbuilds/slack_integration | grep .py
drwxr-xr-x - rodrigo.rezino 29 Jun 16:54 .mypy_cache
.rw-r--r-- 0 rodrigo.rezino 29 Jun 14:27 init.py
drwxr-xr-x - rodrigo.rezino 29 Jun 16:43 pycache
.rw-r--r-- 1.1k rodrigo.rezino 29 Jun 15:40 azure_pipelines_info.py
.rw-r--r-- 1.1k rodrigo.rezino 29 Jun 15:06 github_info.py
.rw-r--r-- 13k rodrigo.rezino 29 Jun 16:43 slack_azure.py
.rw-r--r-- 518 rodrigo.rezino 29 Jun 14:53 slack_constants.py
.rw-r--r-- 514 rodrigo.rezino 29 Jun 16:43 slack_content.py

Don't know what is happening, it works if I point to a single file.

Mypy Version 1.4.1 (compiled: yes)

Research direction

Reproduce the report with mypy 1.4.1 by passing a directory containing the listed .py files, then compare it with passing one file. The issue is resolved when mypy accepts the directory and processes its Python files without reporting that none exist.
