Zip including hidden files

Question

In Linux I can zip all(except hidden files) in current directory by doing:

zip 1.zip * 

But how do I include the hidden files?

Answer 1

EDIT: The correct way is zip -r 1.zip .

The commands shown in my previous answer below are incorrect because they also include the parent directory.

Have you tried this:

zip yourfile.zip sourcedir/* .* 

or you in your case

zip 1.zip * .[^.]*' 

It should include all hidden files also.
