When run fedpkg-new in a package repo where there is no tag, git-describe fails to get last tag and break new immediately. The output could confuse user and don't know what's wrong
git-describe
new
$ fedpkg new Could not execute new: 'git describe --tags --abbrev=0' returned with exit code 128 stderr: 'fatal: No names found, cannot describe anything.'
A suggestion would be to show a message like this
Cannot get latest changes because no tags in this repo.
