Thanks. That's the "excuse" I was hoping to come from somewhere ;-).
In general, I do not like any change, and I do not see much
point in renaming init-db to init. Granted, other people may be
used to see "scm init", but that is not a strong enough reason
for _me_ to sell the name change to old-timers.
So let's do this instead.
(1) Documentation/git-init.txt will have the full
documentation, and we mention init and init-db are
synonyms;
(2) We refer people to gitlink:git-init[1] from
Documentation/git-init-db.txt
