I could see that. Initial imports and all that.

However, my example was a project that was around for about 3 years at that point, and it was basically just labelled: "Upgrade to version 2.0".

I've made that commit before. It was actually an initial import of a from-scratch rewrite that happened to have utility libraries and such in common. Delete everything, drop in the new files you've been working on elsewhere, make that a commit. Not everything changes, because some things are the same by coincidence. Otherwise, it's just a discontinuity.
