Upload Cache - empty directories?

Help and Support
1

After watching the file tree in my cached remote upload cache directory, it seems to upload files as expected after the idle time is reached, but leaves behind the empty directories.

Are these cleaned up at any point?

2

A good question that I don’t know the answer to! @remusb ?

Guess it’s not super important but I was monitoring the cache to confirm it’s all working as expected and noticed a growing tree of old directories is all!
I also noticed trying to use a crypt mount wrapper around this tree didn’t work well at all.

Still looks to be stale, I dare not touch it in case the database wants them around to know which uploads are still queued!
