You were initializing a repository.  How on earth could you be surprised 
when _important_ things like work-tree git-dir or if it is bare are stored 
inside the freshly initialized repository?

The reason for using a command line switch is because I want to override 
default behaviour on this execution, if I wanted to change the default 
behaviour, then I'd set values in the config file.

No, you would not.  Because there is no config file yet.

Htrh,
