If the working directory is not already in version +control, that includes setting up the version control, but not actually +committing anything. If the working directory is in version control, +it includes applying stored metadata to the checked out files in the +working directory. + +Please be careful to *never* overwrite existing files/directories +in the working directory (or use absolute care when doing so). If a file +you need to write already exists, check if its contents are sane, and +if not, emit a warning on stderr. + +If initialisation fails, exit nonzero and no later files will be run. |
