So, would there be a hook that would run at all of the times git might
remove the directories, and the hook could just put them back if
missing?
The post-merge hook is certainly one place, but there are likely
others. You might also want one in post-checkout, but I'm guessing
that switching branches is going to be less frequent in a maildir
directory.
