Subject: pack-refs: remove newly empty directories
X-Git-Tag: v1.7.2.3~3^2

pack-refs: remove newly empty directories

In a large repository which uses directories to organize many refs,
"git pack-refs --all --prune" does not improve performance so much
as it should, unless we remove all the now-empty directories as well.
