<div class="sectionbody">
<p><em>git-init-db</em> [--template=&lt;template_directory&gt;] [--shared[=&lt;permissions&gt;]]</p>
</div>
-<h2>OPTIONS</h2>
-<div class="sectionbody">
-<dl>
-<dt>
---template=&lt;template_directory&gt;
-</dt>
-<dd>
-<p>
-Provide the directory from which templates will be used. The default template
-directory is <tt>/usr/share/git-core/templates</tt>.
-</p>
-<p>When 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>
-</dd>
-<dt>
---shared[={false|true|umask|group|all|world|everybody}]
-</dt>
-<dd>
-<p>
-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 <tt>$GIT_DIR</tt> are created with the
-requested permissions. When not specified, git will use permissions reported
-by umask(2).
-</p>
-<p>The option can have the following values, defaulting to <em>group</em> if no value
-is given:</p>
-<ul>
-<li>
-<p>
-<em>umask</em> (or <em>false</em>): Use permissions reported by umask(2). The default,
- when <tt>--shared</tt> is not specified.
-</p>
-</li>
-<li>
-<p>
-<em>group</em> (or <em>true</em>): Make the repository group-writable, (and g+sx, since
- the git group may be not the primary group of all users).
-</p>
-</li>
-<li>
-<p>
-<em>all</em> (or <em>world</em> or <em>everybody</em>): Same as <em>group</em>, but make the repository
- readable by all users.
-</p>
-<p>By default, the configuration flag receive.denyNonFastforward is enabled
-in shared repositories, so that you cannot force a non fast-forwarding push
-into it.</p>
-</li>
-</ul>
-</dd>
-</dl>
-</div>
<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
-<p>This command creates an empty git repository - basically a <tt>.git</tt> directory
-with subdirectories for <tt>objects</tt>, <tt>refs/heads</tt>, <tt>refs/tags</tt>, and
-template files.
-An initial <tt>HEAD</tt> file that references the HEAD of the master branch
-is also created.</p>
-<p>If the <tt>$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>$GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY</tt>
-environment variable then the sha1 directories are created underneath -
-otherwise the default <tt>$GIT_DIR/objects</tt> directory is used.</p>
-<p>Running <tt>git-init-db</tt> in an existing repository is safe. It will not overwrite
-things that are already there. The primary reason for rerunning <tt>git-init-db</tt>
-is to pick up newly added templates.</p>
-<p>Note that <tt>git-init</tt> is the same as <tt>git-init-db</tt>.</p>
