Confirmed.

$ bzr init lp:~jameinel/bzr/my-special-test
Using default stacking branch /+branch-id/241735 at
bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~jameinel/bzr/
Created a standalone branch (format: unnamed)

$ wget
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~jameinel/bzr/my-special-test/.bzr/branch.conf

Empty file

Contrasted with

$ bzr push lp:~jameinel/bzr/my-test-2
Created new stacked branch referring to /+branch-id/241735.
$ wget
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~jameinel/bzr/my-test-2/.bzr/branch/branch.conf
stacked_on_location = /+branch-id/241735
parent_location = ../../../%2Bbranch/bzr/


Note that the messages are different. And IMO, is part of the issue
with having multiple ways of creating stuff. (vs always running the
same init code, and then fetching into it as orthogonal steps.)
