If you really mean she wanted to make the first commit in two weeks, that is just wrong. Usually you should commit at least every few hours, and changes should be small and self-contained. Even in the case of starting a new project or self-contained module, you should commit a lot so you can go back to an older state if required. You can use rebase -i later to clean up the work-in-progress commits.
