13 pruneemptydirs is used to clean up a local CVS tree. It detects direc‐
14 tories containing remnants of old stuff which has been removed from the
15 CVS. Such stale directories often break compilation. The current direc‐
16 tory and all directories beneath it will be examined.

19 Note that this tool does not remove anything; it simply prints what to
20 do as a series of remove commands. You can copy and paste these com‐
21 mands, or use them with eval in a script.

24 This tool works better if the source directory is not the same as the
25 build directory, since it will not print directories containing old ex‐
26 ecutables.
