Subject: Re: [PATCH] wt-status.c: Modified status message shown for a parent-less branch

From: Kaartic Sivaraam <[email-masked]>
Date: Sat, 10 Jun 2017 07:40:29 +0530

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
