[12.2] Showing Git revisions from 12.08.1950 (7 entries).
Hello,
when I want to get the very first version of a file in Git, I can go
back in history to strange dates:
"Showing Git revisions from 12.08.1950 (7 entries)."
It seems, NB does not get any clue that there don't exist any earlier
versions ...
Well, that's just strange and annoying, but probably time-consuming if
somebody forks a not well-documented project and wants to find the
earlier authors just for crediting.
Kind regards,
Peter

What do you want to say?
What do you do to get the above output? What function?
Which repository and which file are you refering to?
What is the meaning of the subject?
Please give context. There are complaints, that questions on the
mailinglist get unanswered, but a huge problem are vague questions
without context where even understanding the context takes big time.
Please think about your readers, they don't have the same context you
have.
Greetings
Matthias
