```
class StartGenerator
extends Generator
```
Initial RevWalk generator that bootstraps a new walk.
Initially RevWalk starts with this generator as its chosen implementation. The first request for a RevCommit from the RevWalk instance calls to our next() method, and we replace ourselves with the best Generator implementation available based upon the current RevWalk configuration.
