/usr/src is not updated when empty #85

Closed xmacan closed 1 year ago

gitup: build_repair_command: There are too many files to repair -- please re-clone the repository: Argument list too long

It would be great if gitup could download resources even if the folder is empty. There would be no need for another tool or downloading from the web.

I just committed a patch that doesn't attempt a repair when the local repository folder exists but is empty. How does it work for you?

It works great! Thank you!
