Hi Maintainers,


Currently it is not obvious from the docs that (git init 
--initial-branch) needs v2 protocol setup on ssh server for (git clone) 
to work properly with unborn refs, as seen in this email thread

Should a link to the v2 protocol documentation be added in "git init 
--initial-branch" to make this configuration more obvious for admins/users?

 2. https://git-scm.com/docs/gitprotocol-v2
