How to include empty folders/files in the "Repository Structure" for more context?

[abdallahmansour6]

First, thank you all for your work.

I was expecting the whole project structure to be included in the output file (even for empty folders and files, to give context to the LLM on how the project should evolve or what it should exactly work on).

Thanks for the suggestion!

You make a good point about including empty directories in the repository structure - it would indeed provide better context for LLMs about the complete project structure and organization.

I'll work on implementing this feature, likely as something like output.includeEmptyDirectories in the configuration.

Thanks for opening your issue!
