Ikiwiki should really survive being asked to work with a git branch that has no existing commits.
mkdir iki-gittest
cd iki-gittest
GIT_DIR=barerepo.git git init
git clone barerepo.git srcdir
ikiwiki --rcs=git srcdir destdir

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.

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 mostly quiet 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.

Same concern here about extra work. Code path is nearly as hot, being
called on every refresh. Probably could be dealt with similarly as above.
Also, is there any point in breaking the pull up into a
fetch followed by a merge? --[[Joey]]
