Hi, I noticed some special "features" of the first git commit, which seem at least inconsistent to me, even though I've got some explanations on IRC. E.g., the sequence mkdir x cd x git-init echo hi > greating git-commit -a git-format-patch -1 produces a 0-byte long patch. git-format-patch HEAD^ produces an error, whereas with more than one commit it produces tha last patch. Yes, I know about "--root" and that it does allow to extract the very first commit.
