How do I make TortoiseCVS show empty directories?

TortoiseCVS ignores empty directories by default but provides an option to see them. If you want to see empty directories, you must Deselect the Prune empty folders option.

In order to see empty directories:

  1. Right-click in a Windows Explorer window
  2. Select CVS>Preferences
  3. Select the Policy tab
  4. Deselect the Prune empty folders option
  5. Click OK
