Today ive been testing the plugin with github. I download a bunch of
directories with files in them , great, but then when i delete all of
them, commit, and upload the directories aren't deleted. They're all
empty, but they aren't deleted. How do I delete these directories???

This sounds like a bug, egit should not have left an empty directory in
the repository. When the last file is removed from a directory, then
the directory is also supposed to be removed from the repository.
