Re: [PATCH] rm: new option (-d) to remove empty directories

[Krzysztof Goj]

Hi,

This January I've submitted a patch adding a -d flag to rm which
allowed it to remove empty directories, same as BSD rm does. I lacked
a FSF assignment back then, which I have for some time now (RT:
721463; I can send the pdf). Here's the original thread in archive for
those who want more context:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2012-01/msg00111.html

I've rebased my patch against current master and fixed the tests as
Jim Meyering have suggested. New patch is attached, it can also be
viewed at GitHub:

Best regards,
