Relocate should remove empty folder after relocating.

Shadow Version

id("io.github.goooler.shadow") version "8.1.7"

Gradle Version

8.6

Expected Behavior

Avoiding X-Y problem:

X: I am working for a company, then written all code with the package name containing my company according to my company's regulations. However, in some specific scenarios, my leader tells me to hide / replace all my company name specific info. So I have to "move" all package names to other name.

Y: I want to use relocate to move all sources under specific packages (that definitely controllable by my own, and the specific package name doesn't used by any other dependencies) to other name.

Actual Behavior

All classes have been moved to the new package name, but the old package empty folder still exists in the production jar file.

Hope to remove empty folder after relocate post-processing.

Gradle Build Script(s)

tasks.withType<ShadowJar> {
    isEnableRelocation = true
    relocate("[REDACTED due to company security reason]", "com.shadow")
    archiveClassifier = "shadowed"
}

Content of Shadow JAR (jar tf <jar file> - post link to GIST if too long)

META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
