<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
-<p>This simply creates an empty git repository - basically a <tt>.git</tt> directory
-and <tt>.git/object/??/</tt>, <tt>.git/refs/heads</tt> and <tt>.git/refs/tags</tt> directories,

+<p>This command creates an empty git repository - basically a <tt>.git</tt> directory
+with subdirectories for <tt>objects</tt>, <tt>refs/heads</tt>, <tt>refs/tags</tt>, and
+templated files.
+An initial <tt>HEAD</tt> file that references the HEAD of the master branch
+is also created.</p>
+<p>If <tt>--template=&lt;template_directory&gt;</tt> is specified, <tt>&lt;template_directory&gt;</tt>
+is used as the source of the template files rather than the default.
+The template files include some directory structure, some suggested
+"exclude patterns", and copies of non-executing "hook" files. The
+suggested patterns and hook files are all modifiable and extensible.</p>
<p>If the <tt>$GIT_DIR</tt> environment variable is set then it specifies a path
to use instead of <tt>./.git</tt> for the base of the repository.</p>
<p>If the object storage directory is specified via the <tt>$GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY</tt>
