My first implementation did it unconditionally because I think this
should be the default, too.  Then I found in the tg-export section of
README:

	TODO: -n option to prevent exporting of empty patches

I'm not sure if this was meant for collapse or quilt or both.  I assumed
the last and implemented -n as suggested.

Best regards
