Description
**Describe the bug**
Using `gitui` to make the first commit in a repository doesn't work, and somehow changes the active branch to `master` (this is not `init.defaultbranch` either, mine is set to `main`)
**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Create a blank repository
2. Make a commit
3. Observe that it didn't commit anything
4. Open the `Branches` menu
5. The active branch has changed to `master`
6. `git branch` by now lists only the `master` branch, but it's not active
**Expected behavior**
The commit should have succeeded, and the active branch should not have been changed.
