since git doesn't track directories, only content (per the big discussion
recently) I beleive that doing a checkout would leave Rob without the
directories that he emptied out, so shouldn't git apply also clear the
directories to end up in the same state?

Move architecture-specific Documentation into a common subdirectory.
I really, really, really hate git.
Ok, on my laptop I just noticed that "git apply" of the patch didn't complain
but it also left the empty subdirectories it moved stuff out of. (I don't
believe this happened on the version of git I was using on my previous
laptop, which ate itself a month and change ago, but obviously I can't
check.)
There is no "git rmdir". "git rm" refuses to delete the directory
without -r. "git rm -r Documentation/x86_64" listed (as just deleted) all
the files that the patch already moved out of the directory.
Am I missing something obvious here?
