-I've fixed this initial construction case, and, based on my testing, I've also fixed the post-update executing on a new master, and ikiwiki.cgi executing on a non-existent master cases. Unfortunately these cases still generate a lot of warnings from recentchanges; I suspect a much more invasive patch would be needed to shut those up.

Please commit so my users stop whining at me about having clean branches to push to, the big babies.
-Summary: Change three scary loud failure cases related to empty branches into three scary loud success cases.

+
+My concern is that this adds a bit of slowdown (git show-ref is fast, but
+It's still extra work) to a very hot code path that is run to eg,
+update recentchanges after every change.
+
+Seems not ideal to do extra work every time to handle a case
+that will liternally happen a maximum of once in the entire lifecycle of a
+wiki (and zero times more typically, since the setup automator puts in a
+.gitignore file that works around this problem).
+
+So as to not just say "no" ... what if it always tried to run git log,
+and if it failed (or returned no parsed lines, then it could look
+at git show-ref to desice whether to throw an error or not.
