Hi. I won't send you updated patches until I import and test my huge
repo. Everything will be here:
https://github.com/basinilya/git/commits/v1.8.2.2-git-svn-fixes

At the moment I've decided not to implement the Junio's proposal:

But the config file is not an option too: I have 400 tags, each has
200 empty folders.

Instead I decided to store the paths in a text file (see
https://github.com/basinilya/git/commit/a961aedd81cb8676a52cfe71ccb6eba0f9e64b90 ).
I'm not planning to push this change to you.

The last error I encountered is:
r7009 = 39805bb078983e34f2fc8d2c8c02d695d00d11c0 (refs/remotes/DMC4_Basic)
Too many open files: Can't open file '/home/il/builds/sicap/gitsvn/prd_dmc4.svn/db/revs/0/786': Too many open files at /.snapshots/persist/builds/git/git-git/perl/blib/lib/Git/SVN/Ra.pm line 282.

I think It's unrelated to empty dirs.
