When I record changes in pijul 1.0.0-alpha.57 it somehow creates empty change before actual change.

Why did it appear after all previous changes and before real change? Should I be an author of this change?

It’s a mostly empty change, there for technical reasons explained here, see “One minor incovenience”.
