Description of the bug

After the initialization of the git-branchless, panic occurs without any commit.

↳ git init           
Alias tip: g init
hint: Using 'master' as the name for the initial branch. This default branch name
hint: is subject to change. To configure the initial branch name to use in all
hint: of your new repositories, which will suppress this warning, call:
hint: 
hint:   git config --global init.defaultBranch <name>
hint: 
hint: Names commonly chosen instead of 'master' are 'main', 'trunk' and
hint: 'development'. The just-created branch can be renamed via this command:
hint: 
hint:   git branch -m <name>
Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/branchless/.git

↳ git branchless init
Alias tip: g branchless init
Created config file at /tmp/branchless/.git/branchless/config
Your main branch name could not be auto-detected!
Examples of a main branch: master, main, trunk, etc.
See https://github.com/arxanas/git-branchless/wiki/Concepts#main-branch

↳ git sl             
Alias tip: g sl
The application panicked (crashed).
Message:  A fatal error occurred: 
   0: Could not find repository main branch

Location:
   /home/black7375/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/git-branchless-lib-0.6.0/src/core/repo_ext.rs:74

Suggestion: 
The main branch "master" could not be found in your repository
at path: "/tmp/branchless/.git/".
These branches exist: []
Either create it, or update the main branch setting by running:

    git branchless init --main-branch <branch>

Note that remote main branches are no longer supported as of v0.6.0. See
https://github.com/arxanas/git-branchless/discussions/595 for more details.

Backtrace omitted. Run with RUST_BACKTRACE=1 environment variable to display it.
Run with RUST_BACKTRACE=full to include source snippets.

Expected behavior

Instead of panic, it is better to get a message that there is no commit.

your current branch 'master' does not have any commits yet
