Junio C Hamano a38e727925 [PATCH] git-branch: avoid getting confused by empty or nonexisting branches.
When not specifying the start point explicitly, we ended up
emitting ^0 in addition to the default HEAD.  Be careful to see
if we have "$2" before finding out which commit to base the new
branch on.
