231 * * MKDIR - Make the repo_path (and workdir_path) as needed. Init is
232 * always willing to create the ".git" directory even without this
233 * flag. This flag tells init to create the trailing component of
234 * the repo and workdir paths as needed.
235 * * MKPATH - Recursively make all components of the repo and workdir
236 * paths as necessary.
237 * * EXTERNAL_TEMPLATE - libgit2 normally uses internal templates to
238 * initialize a new repo. This flags enables external templates,
239 * looking the "template_path" from the options if set, or the
