That same documentation could mention a common workaround for when someone does really want to keep the empty directories: $ touch ./path/to/empty/dir/.keep $ git add ./path/to/empty/dir/.keep $ git commit -m "Keep that empty directory because it is needed for <whatever>" This would obviate the need for a new flag to switch behaviours. ~ Tim
