An initial `HEAD` file that -references the HEAD of the master branch is also created. - -If the `$GIT_DIR` environment variable is set then it specifies a path -to use instead of `./.git` for the base of the repository. - -If the object storage directory is specified via the -`$GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY` environment variable then the sha1 directories -are created underneath - otherwise the default `$GIT_DIR/objects` -directory is used. - -Running 'git init' in an existing repository is safe. It will not -overwrite things that are already there. The primary reason for -rerunning 'git init' is to pick up newly added templates (or to move -the repository to another place if --separate-git-dir is given). - -OPTIONS -------- - --q:: ---quiet:: - -Only print error and warning messages; all other output will be suppressed. - ---bare:: - -Create a bare repository. If `GIT_DIR` environment is not set, it is set to the -current working directory. - ---object-format=<format>:: - -Specify the given object format (hash algorithm) for the repository. The valid -values are 'sha1' and (if enabled) 'sha256'. 'sha1' is the default. -+ -include::object-format-disclaimer.txt[] - ---template=<template_directory>:: - -Specify the directory from which templates will be used. (See the "TEMPLATE -DIRECTORY" section below.) - ---separate-git-dir=<git dir>:: - -Instead of initializing the repository as a directory to either `$GIT_DIR` or -`./.git/`, create a text file there containing the path to the actual -repository. This file acts as filesystem-agnostic Git symbolic link to the -repository. -+ -If this is reinitialization, the repository will be moved to the specified path. - --b <branch-name>:: ---initial-branch=<branch-name>:: - -Use the specified name for the initial branch in the newly created repository. -If not specified, fall back to the default name: `master`. - ---shared[=(false|true|umask|group|all|world|everybody|0xxx)]:: - -Specify that the Git repository is to be shared amongst several users. This -allows users belonging to the same group to push into that -repository. When specified, the config variable "core.sharedRepository" is -set so that files and directories under `$GIT_DIR` are created with the -requested permissions. When not specified, Git will use permissions reported -by umask(2). -+ -The option can have the following values, defaulting to 'group' if no value -is given: -+ --- -'umask' (or 'false'):: - -Use permissions reported by umask(2). The default, when `--shared` is not -specified. - -'group' (or 'true'):: - -Make the repository group-writable, (and g+sx, since the git group may be not -the primary group of all users). This is used to loosen the permissions of an -otherwise safe umask(2) value. Note that the umask still applies to the other -permission bits (e.g. if umask is '0022', using 'group' will not remove read -privileges from other (non-group) users). See '0xxx' for how to exactly specify -the repository permissions. - -'all' (or 'world' or 'everybody'):: - -Same as 'group', but make the repository readable by all users. - -'0xxx':: - -'0xxx' is an octal number and each file will have mode '0xxx'. '0xxx' will -override users' umask(2) value (and not only loosen permissions as 'group' and -'all' does). '0640' will create a repository which is group-readable, but not -group-writable or accessible to others. '0660' will create a repo that is -readable and writable to the current user and group, but inaccessible to others. --- - -By default, the configuration flag `receive.denyNonFastForwards` is enabled -in shared repositories, so that you cannot force a non fast-forwarding push -into it. - -If you provide a 'directory', the command is run inside it. If this directory -does not exist, it will be created. - -TEMPLATE DIRECTORY ------------------- - -Files and directories in the template directory whose name do not start with a -dot will be copied to the `$GIT_DIR` after it is created. - -The template directory will be one of the following (in order): - - - the argument given with the `--template` option; - - - the contents of the `$GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR` environment variable; - - - the `init.templateDir` configuration variable; or - - - the default template directory: `/usr/share/git-core/templates`. - -The default template directory includes some directory structure, suggested -"exclude patterns" (see linkgit:gitignore[5]), and sample hook files. - -The sample hooks are all disabled by default.
