That's not good. Making git-init-db when it wants git-init.

Not good.  I am _very_ tempted to do this.

Perhaps, but "git init-db" does a lot more than just initialise the 
object database (such as setting default config-variables, installing 
template hooks...). "git init" is actually a more sensible name now adays.

Changing the name of a command is a delicate matter... sounds sensible, but
then make it git-init is new name in 1.5.0 (or right now) with a link to
the older one (and squeak about the name change when called as
git-init-db), and git-init-db is gone by 2.0.0

Thanks.  That's the "excuse" I was hoping to come from somewhere ;-).

In general, I do not like any change, and I do not see much
point in renaming init-db to init.  Granted, other people may be
used to see "scm init", but that is not a strong enough reason
for _me_ to sell the name change to old-timers.

So let's do this instead.

 (1) Documentation/git-init.txt will have the full
     documentation, and we mention init and init-db are
     synonyms;

 (2) We refer people to gitlink:git-init[1] from
     Documentation/git-init-db.txt
