This is known as the friction point. As the bike slowly begins to move forward, you can roll on the throttle and be on your merry way. You must not accelerate too much while driving on the hill. It can be fatal. It is important to keep your stability at all times. You must always keep the clutch in the correct position. Pulling in any further will cause the bike to start moving in reverse.
