the lineEnding param seems to let the assembly-plugin ignore empty directories. For example you can use following workaround:
{code:xml} 
<fileSets>
   <fileSet>
      <directory>
        ${dir.with.empty.dirs}
      </directory>	
      <outputDirectory>
        ${output.dir}
      </outputDirectory>
      <excludes>
         <exclude>
            ${dir.with.special.lineEndings}
         </exclude>
      </excludes>
   </fileSet>
   <fileSet>
      <directory>
        ${dir.with.empty.dirs}
      </directory>	
      <outputDirectory>
        ${output.dir}
      </outputDirectory>
      <includes>
         <include>
            ${dir.with.special.lineEndings}
         </include>
      </includes>
      <lineEnding>unix</lineEnding>
   </fileSet>
</fileSets>

> It seems that the inclusion of an empty directory isn't currently possible with the assembly plugin. This is a problem because I would like to have an empty "logs" directory included with my zip file assembly. It would be nice if the assembly plugin gave you the option to add empty directories to an assembly.
