Subject: documentation/doxygen: don't create output dir if it's empty.
X-Git-Url: https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/ucgi/~cjwatson/git?a=commitdiff_plain;h=daef291c943073b8cb7391c154ad48c948da1574;p=blog.git

documentation/doxygen: don't create output dir if it's empty.

It doesn't make sense to me why makedirs() wouldn't just gracefully
no-op that.
