.tools-to-svn.sh : globstar: invalid shell option name

[mdbitz]

During release of the 8.3 branch I experienced an error where ignore files weren't ignored by the script.

Purging paths included in .svnignore
./tools/deploy-to-svn.sh: line 84: shopt: globstar: invalid shell option name

We need to review why this occurred, and if there are any dependencies that need to be added/checked for and if there is error/warning messages that need to be generated to ensure extra files don't make their way to the svn repo.

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. ./tools/deploy-to-svn.sh 8.3

What I expected

js, images, css in extensions folder to be ignored

What happened instead

js, css, images were in the trunk and had to be manually removed.

This was introduced in #12832.

The script was meant to catch whether you used a recent version of Bash that supports globstar.

What version do you run on your machine?

:nod: I did receive the message and responded "y". I'll have to run the script some more and check versions, will come back with more info.
