Initialize a Git repository with an initial commit.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# 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

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add wildcard/caro/speckit-git-initialize@sha256:2c3e80ca3f596720

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260427.b2f2f5b, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
