Auto-set a generated app as a git repo

A side discussion I started in #368 is how to manage a created app with GitHub(or another git server). In short, there are 2 ideas:

option 1: add a --git option to create-react-app

1. create a repo using GitHub web interface
2. runcreate-react-app my-app --git https://github.com/username/my-app.git locally and try to create an app in the cloned repo folder.

Note: assume user doesn’t add conflicted filed (listed in #368) between step 1 and 2.

option 2: add extra 2 steps to create-react-app

1. automatically run git init when initial an app,
2. after an app is generated, print out
   • steps of create a new repo in github from command line, or wrap those steps as create-react-app set-github-remote.
   • rm -rf .gitignore .git if user don’t want to set git

Option 1 is closer to my workflow of using other code generators, but I prefer option 2 if it is available (save me a few minutes of wandering on GitHub).

I am happy to try adding both options to CRA if you like. I see most of the work has been done by @torifat in PR #368.

I don’t feel strongly about this and I don’t think it’s important at this point so I’ll close.

Maybe I could continue where I left off the last time but not today.
