They are allowed but they change the hash, just as any other 
difference would.

Missing or extraneous directories are no less meaningful than 
files or permissions, etc., and can easily cause the build to fail 
(‘cd: blah: No such file or directory’, ‘mkdir: cannot create foo: 
File exists’) or otherwise behave very differently.

Kind regards,

T G-R
