+### Please describe the problem.
+
+The assistant seems to only sync files and not directories, so empty directories will not be synced.
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+- Create an empty directory on HostA
+- See that nothing gets synced (daemon.log is silent) and the directory doesn't exist on the other HostB
+- Create an empty file inside the empty directory on HostA
+- See that now HostB has the empty file inside the directory
+
+I'm sure this comes directly from the git behavior but is at least surprising for a direct mode repository using the assistant.
+
