Initialize a Git repository with an initial commit

35 other projects use a version of this, 32 of them edited.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

6 rules. 6 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • 6

    Common

    Most of the 32 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 0

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Common:

    Run the appropriate script from the project root:

    line 18
  2. Common:

    If the extension scripts are not found, fall back to:

    line 23
  3. Common:

    Default branch naming (git config init.defaultBranch)

    line 36
  4. Common:

    If Git is not installed:

    line 49
  5. Common:

    If Git is installed but git init, git add ., or git commit fails:

    line 54
  6. Common:

    Stop this command rather than continuing with a partially initialized repository

    line 56

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 32 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

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:

  • ✓ 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

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
