shep new creates nested git repos

If you’re in a git repo and run shep new it will create another git repo inside the existing git repo.

What about just dropping git init all together? I kinda just threw it in on a whim, but I would be fine with saying it is outside the scope of shep. People can run their own git init. Afaik this isn’t common among frameworks

That’s cross platform, but it leads to issues if there does exist a repository above the current directory. e.g. on my machine this is what happens:

[shep-test]$ git rev-parse --git-dir
.git
[shep-test]$ cd ../
[opensource]$ git rev-parse --git-dir
/home/chris/.git
