Re: [PATCH] fast-import: fix ls command with empty path

Hi,

Yes, I think you are very right.

. I have a vague fear that my "allow filecopy to copy from root" patch
  on top of David's is missing some handling of the empty src case,
  along the same lines as 8fe533f6 (fast-import: treat filemodify with
  empty tree as delete.

. After looking closer at David's patch, it does not seem to handle
  'ls <tree> ""' carefully enough.  It probably needs something
  like Dmitry's [1].

So please backburner this, and we can try for something better by
next cycle.

Thanks for a sanity check.
Jonathan
