Help! fatal: destination path 'main/applications/ktorrent' already exists and is not an empty directory.

All, Within the past couple of days I now am getting a lot of these types of messages when I attempt to sync my local tree: fatal: destination path 'main/applications/ktorrent' already exists and is not an empty directory. Thus far the only fix I have found is to delete the entire module and resync. The problem is there is no .git directory in the affected modules. I have no idea how to fix and searching the web is not helping. There seems to be no end to the madness. With each resync a new module is affected. Please help! Darrell
