Git Initialization Instructions

When the user asks to initialize a Git repository, follow these steps:

  1. Check if a Git repository already exists in the current directory using git status or by checking for a .git folder.
  2. If a repository exists, inform the user and ask if they want to reinitialize.
  3. If no repository exists, run git init to initialize a new repository.
  4. Optionally set up initial configuration (user.name, user.email) if provided by the user.
  5. Optionally create an initial commit if requested.
