In what situations would you want to store an empty directory and pay attention to whether it is renamed?
Empty directories are sometimes necessary and it's a pain in the ass that git cannot store them at all. I had to put almost empty README.txt files in directories like log/ in many projects. It's more a minor annoyance than anything more.
