Subject: [PATCH] git-init.txt: move description section up
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

It's more or less standard that synopsis is followed by description,
then options.

This is not just a clean move though:

 - The paragraphs are realigned a bit
 - The text mentioning git-init-db is dropped. init-db is
   deprecated, no need to confuse new users

-is to pick up newly added templates.
-
-Note that 'git init' is the same as 'git init-db'.  The command
-was primarily meant to initialize the object database, but over
-time it has become responsible for setting up the other aspects
-of the repository, such as installing the default hooks and
-setting the configuration variables.  The old name is retained
-for backward compatibility reasons.
