Let the user decide if you want to create a git repository or not

[danielo515]

Hello and thank you very much for remotion. Video as code is what my nerdy developer child needs.
I think the script to initialize a new project has a weird limitation, which is that it doesn't create a new Git repository if you create the folder inside another repository. I understand that this is not common, but in my case I do this a lot.

The only option the CLI gives you is to continue without creating a Git repository or not continue. I don't understand that limitation. The question should be: do you want to create a nested Git repository or not? In my case, I actually want to do that, and with the current state of the tool I have to go into the directory and initialize the Git repository myself. It's not a big deal, but I don't understand the intention behind this.
