I have noticed the same behavior. I am running flow-capture without -N cmd
line option and it produces directory structure according to value 3 in
man page (flow-tools-0.68).

According to flow-capture man page, default is 0, which should produce
zero nesting level. However, in src/flow-capture.c is default nesting
level is set to 3:

  /* year/month/day nesting */
  nest = 3;

This should be fixed either in the man page or source code.
