Re: [fossil-users] Is it possible to add empty folders to the repo?

(BETTER YET: Is it possible to REMOVE empty folders?)

For me, there is an even more ‘annoying’ problem with the way empty directories 
are handled, but I think it is the opposite use case.

For example:

You have version X that has subdirectories a, b, and c.
And, another version Y that has only a and b (c is missing, either because c 
isn’t yet created, or because c was removed, depending on whether version X 
comes before or after version Y).

In either case, if you update from version X to version Y (using FOSSIL UPDATE 
command), the c directory is emptied but not completely removed even though 
it’s not part of the currently loaded version.  This is quite a bit annoying, 
specially when you scale this problem to many such empty subdirectories.___

Nice tip :). i've been using Fossil since Christmas of 2007 and still
learning new things about it.

Just for the record: I was not looking for a way to do this. I am trying to
work on a svn-import command, and since svn allows this, I just wanted to
make sure that I was right in thinking fossil does not allow it, and empty
dirs will not get imported.

Fossil only tracks files.  So in order to create a directory you must have
at least one file in that directory.

Arguably, if you need empty dirs in your project as part of a build
process, it should be in the Makefile or equiv.

maybe you could use :
fossil settings empty-dirs

A comma or newline-separated list of pathnames. On
update and checkout commands, if no file or directory
exists with that name, an empty directory will be
created.

But you can always add a .keep file or something in a directory you want
to keep around and track that.
