This should be due to .gitignore including extra_version/.

Indeed, when I create the tarballs, my script copies the git repository and issues "git clean -xdf" to only keep files tracked by git.

So having extra_version/ in .gitignore causes my tarball creation script to disregard this directory and its contents entirely.

So one approach would be to remove extra_version/ from .gitignore. Another approach would be to change my script so it re-creates those directories after the clean.

Michael, any preference ? What is the intent for having extra_version/ in .gitignore ?

Both directories contain a 'README' file because git can't track an empty directory, 'git clean -xdf' will not delete them since they are part of the repo, if the script you use to generate the tarballs delete them, it is clearly broken.

Looking at the tarball, 'extra_version/README' exists but not 'extra_version/patches/README', there is something fishy happening here.

The issue is with my release script.
