stg-init(1) Manual Page

Initialise the current GIT branch to be used as an StGIT stack. You must already be in a GIT repository and .git/HEAD must point to a valid file in refs/heads/.

This operation is for example suitable to start working using the "development branch" workflow (see gitlink:stg[1]). Other means to setup an StGIT stack are stglink:clone[] and the --create and --clone commands of stglink:branch[].

Part of the StGIT suite - see gitlink:stg[1].
