What
The directory-sync scanner, which decides which files to sync for a session, now also ignores files ending in .dir-sync-empty.json and files containing .dir-sync-empty.json.tmp., in addition to the existing .dir-sync.json patterns it already skipped.
Why
This suggests a new kind of marker file used to represent empty folders during syncing; excluding it keeps these internal marker files from being treated as regular synced content.
