Subject: Re: [PATCH] wt-status.c: Modified status message shown for a parent-less branch
Date: Sat, 10 Jun 2017 07:40:29 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1497060629.5324.0.camel@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170610015236.5237-1-kaarticsivaraam91196@gmail.com>

The status message shown for a parent-less branch wasn't so
descriptive and was a little confusing.

The message has been changed to be more descriptive to users in
such a way that it clearly shows the state of the branch / repository.

This allows the users to be reminded that they are about to make
their initial commit which the previous message didn't seem to do
communicate well.

A few alternatives were,

* No commit yet
* Your current branch does not have any commits
* Current branch waiting for initial commit
