So  when we are talking about a repository tree _becoming_ empty, we 
need the information whether or whether not we should remove it upon
becoming empty.

You don't seem to realize - although I've told you now abotu a million 
times - that what you are talking about is:

 - technically exactly the same as ".gitignore", which for some 
   unfathomable reason you cannot seem to accept.

Linus?  Do both of us a favor and forget about the "." proposal.
Since I already dropped it, we can save time if you rant about the
proposal I have replaced it with and call me an idiot for a different
reason.

Quite frankly, Junio would be a total idiot to take any patches that do 
what you want to do. Happily, he is anything but.

And he does not come across as one.
