Hi,

I am missing the ability to do this (command line or GUI)

git remote add someremote someurl
git push --init someremote/someurl

The implementation would invoke receive pack on the receiving side with
an --init option. On the server side the repository would be created and
initialized just as one had executed and mkdir and git init --bare.

The target audience is people who are either lazy (like me) or "shellofobic" users.
GUI's would get an extra check box.

This could be extended by passing options to the init switch with init options
for the server side, say --init="--shared=false".

Could a patch for this be acceptable?
