7 git-init-db - Creates an empty git object database
16 This simply creates an empty git object database - basically a `.git`
17 directory and `.git/object/??/` directories.
19 If the object storage directory is specified via the 'GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY'
20 environment variable then the sha1 directories are created underneath -
21 otherwise the default `.git/objects` directory is used.
23 "git-init-db" won't hurt an existing repository.
