Subject: What does this output of git supposed to mean ?
Date: Mon, 05 Jun 2017 19:34:12 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1496671452.4809.2.camel@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello all,

I noticed a weird output by git when trying to run 'git status' on a
newly initialized git repository. It prints the following,

> On branch master
> 
> Initial commit
> 
> nothing to commit (create/copy files and use "git add" to track)


What's that "Initial commit" supposed to mean?
