Initialize Git Repository
/speckit.git.initializeInitialize a Git repository in the current project directory if one does not already exist.
--- description: "Initialize a Git repository with an initial commit" --- # Initialize Git Repository Initialize a Git repository in the current project directory if one does not already exist. ## Execution Run the appropriate script from the project root: - Bash: .specify/extensions/git/scripts/bash/initialize-repo.sh - PowerShell: .specify/extensions/git/scripts/powershell/initialize-repo.ps1 If the extension scripts are not found, fall back to: - Bash: git init && git add . && git commit -m "Initial commit from Specify template" - PowerShell: git init; git add .; git commit -m "Initial commit from Specify template" The script handles all checks internally: - Skips if Git is not available - Skips if already inside a Git repository - Runs git init, git add ., and git commit with an initial commit message ## Customization Replace the script to add project-specific Git initialization steps: - Custom .gitignore templates - Default branch naming (git config init.defaultBranch) - Git LFS setup - Git hooks installation - Commit signing configuration - Git Flow initialization ## Output On success: - [OK] Git repository initialized ## Graceful Degradation If Git is not installed: - Warn the user - Skip repository initialization - The project continues to function without Git (specs can still be created under specs/) If Git is installed but git init, git add ., or git commit fails: - Surface the error to the user - Stop this command rather than continuing with a partially initialized repository
