The git migration is not 100% done yet.
There is some fallout which I will be working on the next few days.
1) svn:ignore's are gone. I 'll look into this tonight and tomorrow.
They need to be replaced with .gitignore files and there's a command
to automate that but it doesn't work (I tried a lot):

I 'll have to re-create that one by one, manually. I might miss some
ignores.
Closely examine your commits over the next few weeks that you are
not committing files that should be ignored!
Only after the most basic .gitignore's are added again, I 'll start
distributing write authorization to everyone in the login list.
2) empty directories are gone. I 'll look into this over the next
couple of days.
Git cannot handle empty directories at this time. It sucks and they
might fix it someday, but currently it is not possible.
I tried several things to remedy this, but was unable to do so.
This means:
- In java or resources directories: all empty packages have been
removed.
- In every module: every empty resources or test/java or
test/resources directory has been removed.
- Under drools-container/drools-seam/drools-seam2 the directory src
has been removed
- Under drools-container/drools-seam/drools-seam3 the directory src
has been removed
- Under drools-docs, under images: empty dirs:

- and a bunch we need to look into:

- Some planner stuff:
-- /drools-planner/src/main/assembly/emptydir
-- /drools-planner/src/main/assembly/nurseRosteringCompetition/input
--
/drools-planner/src/main/assembly/nurseRosteringCompetition/output
See the second response on
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/115983/how-do-i-add-an-empty-directory-to-a-git-repository
On the plus side, this probably solves half the split packages
cases.
