In general, I am not particularly fond of this kind of special casing,

I like the Perl way (having multiple options to do the same thing), and do
not like the Python way ("there is only one way to do one thing").
Opinions? Breakages?
I like the intent of the patch. It will definitely make initializing
bare Git repositories easier for new users.
Also keep in mind that "git --bare <some-command-other-than-init" is
_really_ rare, at least in my experience. I had to use it exactly _twice_
since I started using Git.
