<directory> is not a valid python package name

Migrating from 0.790 to 0.812, we are experiencing issues running mypy because we have an init.py file at the root of our project, and our project repository contains a dash in it's name.

I believe it comes from this PR #9614 which seems to change the way modules are crawled

Is there some option we can pass to prevent mypy to throw an error during this step ?

We are thinking about renaming the project root folder or moving all our code in a subfolder but any other solution would be appreciated

Maybe remove the __init__.py?

Wow now I feel dumb, thanks for the suggestion @hauntsaninja

I thought this __init__.py file was needed to ease import across our different packages, but it seems it could be safely removed.
