The delete operations of the fast-export output should precede any addition belonging to the same commit, Addition and deletion with the same name entry could happen in case of file to directory and viceversa. The fast-export sorting was added in 060df62 (fast-export: Fix output order of D/F changes). That change was made in order to fix the case of directory to file in the same commit, but it broke the reverse case (File to directory).
