Description

The scandist script ignores commits which only affect a directory.
This is OK for simple directory creation, but means that releases which are created by renaming/copying from dist/dev are ignored.

For example the following did not cause an email to be sent:

$ svn log -r27902 -v https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/
------------------------------------------------------------------------
r27902 | tgraves | 2018-07-03 19:08:54 +0100 (Tue, 03 Jul 2018) | 2 lines
Changed paths:
D /dev/spark/v2.2.2-rc2-bin
A /release/spark/spark-2.2.2 (from /dev/spark/v2.2.2-rc2-bin:27901)

Publish spark 2.2.2
