fossil init [options] repository

fossil init creates a new Fossil repository file. The repository is a single SQLite database that contains all history, wiki, tickets, and project metadata.
After initialization, use fossil open to create a working directory. The repository file can be hosted via fossil ui for web access or served over HTTP for remote collaboration.
Repository settings include project name, description, and admin credentials. The --template option allows creating repositories based on existing ones, inheriting their configuration.

--admin-user name

Set admin username.

Set project name.
