Description
The 'repo gitc-init' command is ran to initialize a new GITC
client for use with the GITC file system.
This command will setup the client directory, initialize repo,
just like repo init does, and then downloads the manifest collection and
installs it in the .repo/directory of the GITC client.
Once this is done, a GITC manifest is generated by pulling the
HEAD SHA for each project and generates the properly formatted XML file and
installs it as .manifest in the GITC client directory.
The -c argument is required to specify the GITC client
name.
The optional -f argument can be used to specify the
manifest file to use for this GITC client.
