Empty folders are not backed-up

[Beber]

I've found that persy did not back up empty folders that are inside my watched folder.

Steps to reproduce :
create an empty folder inside your watched folder.
wait for 5 seconds (time to wait after an action for a backup)
lauch a git browser -> no commit was done and the empty folder does not appear

I already experienced the same problem with pyinotify. I'll try to check if they already have a bug report for this.

hi and thanks for the report

this problem is a shortcoming in git(http://git-scm.com/) which persy uses for backup and sync. this MAY be fixed in one of the future versions of git but i cant fix it in persy right now.

i will create a information about this in the documentation!

updated the doc. will upload the new version with a new release of persy. thanks again
