Many packages are deployed with their unit test suite. The files don't
occupy much space, don't interfere with the running of the program, and
can be helpful to run the tests in the deployed environment.

I would advise not to bother. Prepare the release of the entire source
needed to build the distribution, and don't worry about somehow
excluding the test suite.

Please do not use an email system which appends these obnoxious messages
in a public forum.

Either convince the people who impose that false disclaimer onto your
message to stop doing that; or, stop using that system for writing to a
public forum.
