Counting directories results in invalid number of reported files and incorrect size. Since directory sizes may differ between OSes/File systems counting them is inaccurate. Eg:

Having directory structure like below will result in 3 files being reported (., A directories each 4094 bytes and 2-byte a.txt file)

Probably we should not synchronize folders at all and behave like git - empty folders will not be synchronized (however they will be visible)

(archpk) ~/tmp/mount/test$ tree -s
.
├── [       4096]  A
└── [          2]  a.txt

1 directory, 1 file
