How to create a job with init README？ #765
Description
Description of the problem, including code/CLI snippet
I want to use gitlab project create ... to create a job and Initialize repository with a README,
but there is no options.
gitlab api https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/api/projects.html#create-project in create job has option initialize_with_readme.
in the last i use this command create README .gitlab project-file create --project-id $(shell cat REPO_INFO | grep 'id' | sed 's/^id: //g') --file-path README.md --branch master --content '# makefile-init' --commit-message init-with-makefile
if there has better choice?

Hi @Tiger-zzZ, this is quite late but there are two options:
--content 'your content', then I think your approach makes sense. The GitLab API (or UI) does not provide a way to already provide the content of the readme when creating projects with READMEs initialized.
