>From git-rev-list documentation:
--remove-empty::
	Stop when a given path disappears from the tree.

But isn't it to be intended *after* a path disapperas from the tree? In this case I would expect to see revision f2561fda364ad984ef1441a80c90b0ee04f1a7c4 also with --remove-empty option.

BTW rev f2561fda364ad984ef1441a80c90b0ee04f1a7c4 is the 'Add git-imap-send, derived from isync 1.0.1.' patch.

Thanks Marco
