Repository initialization

To get the most out of cocogitto you need to have a cog.toml config at the root of your repository. You can create this file manually or generate the default one with cog init.

Create a new repository

bash
mkdir my_repo && cd my_repo
cog init

cog init works like git init except it create a template cog.toml config file, and an initial commit with the following message: chore: initial commit.

You can specify the target path of the repository you want to create:

bash
cog init my_repo

Initialize an existing repo

Running cog init on an existing repository will just create a template configuration without creating any commit:

bash
git init my_repo && cd my_repo
cog init
bash
git status
On branch master
Changes to be committed:
  (use "git restore --staged <file>..." to unstage)
	new file:   cog.toml
