There is an option to allow hidden files in ownCloud client. Simply edit the configuration file: ~/.local/share/data/ownCloud
and set:
0FoldersownCloudignoreHiddenFiles=false
There is also a common list of files to exclude: /etc/owncloud-client/sync-exclude.lst
; which includes temporary files, htaccess, locks, etc.
These can also be set from the GUI: General > Edit Ignored Files
