Thanks. Following John's documentation links (below) led to that basic
understanding a little earlier today. I also discovered some other
fundamentally important configuration options there. In addition to
empty-dirs, my setup also needs ignore-glob and keep-glob to avoid
'add'ing some files and to avoid 'clean'ing some files.

Thanks for the help!
