Previously, git-svn would ignore cases where the path we're
tracking is removed from the repository. This was to prevent
heads with follow-parent from ending up with a tree full of
empty revisions (and thus breaking rename detection).
The previous behavior is fine until the path we're tracking
is re-added later on, leading to the old files being merged
in with the new files in the directory (because the old
files were never marked as deleted)
We will now only remove all the old files locally that were
deleted remotely iff we detect the directory we're in is being
created from scratch.
Thanks for Marcus D. Hanwell for the bug report and
Peter Baumann for the analysis.
