Follow-up Comment #1:

Quoting from Peter Schuller in the mail list (thanks Peter)...

Zero changes is not special cased. It will still produce an incremental,
which can indeed be useful (for one thing you then know that you have a backup
as of that point in time, rather than not being able to distinguish "no backup
was taken in 5 years" from "nothing changes in 5 years").

I'm going to put this on the wish list for future implementation.
