Did he condone incest at first and then change his mind?
No, you're misinterpreting what happened. God Himself is immutable, that is correct. What changed is the circumstances, not God, Himself.
I've already explained how the circumstances changed.
It was the same thing with humans finally be allowed to eat meat. Before the Great Flood (which happened about 4400 years ago give or take a hundred years or so), humans for the most part were forbidden to eat meat.
After Noah and his family stepped off the ark though God then allowed humans to eat meat. That is when animals first started to really become afraid of us.
Before then, they had no real reason to fear man.
