Actually I hoped, that my report raised some memories, because errors w= ith=20 this symptom had been examined before and some kind of fix has been add= ed=20 (according http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25353316/error-with-git-s= vn-clone) to GIT 2.4.x.

Actually I am not sure. I tried to create a little dummy project in a=20 Subversion test repository that contains also empty directories which h= ave=20 to be preserved ... but the conversion for it works flawlessly. Even if= =20 those dirs had been nested, renamed, moved and deleted. Any idea how to proceed? Cheers, J=C3=B6rg
