git svn: fix empty directory creation

Avoid attempts to stat() the contents of '', which could happen
when the root directory is empty.  Additionally, remove the
unnecessary '_' stat optimization since it was confusing and
possibly throwing off the non-existent case.

[ew: fixed indentation, rewrote commit message]
