As you can see in your own screenshot, the background image shows the
type of connection (https) that's used for the repository.
Since that type is only known after a successful initialization, it
wouldn't make much sense to show it in the init message.
Sure, we could just assume the url is valid and show the background
image anyway, but assuming stuff without verification is usually bad.
Also the image might distract users from the message.
