Research direction

Start with the `shipjs prepare` entry point and reproduce the behavior in a repository containing only the `feat: init` commit. Inspect how the release revision range and next version are calculated for this case. Done means the single-commit repository can trigger a release instead of reporting "Nothing to release!".
