Repository navigation
No documentation about git init #5291
Description
I was surprised when trying out create-react-app 2 that the new app I created had its own git repository. I didn't see any mention of this in the user guide or in the "what's new" portion of the blog post. Eventually I found the code changes from @mauricedb for issue #1288. I don't have a problem with the new behavior, but it should be documented somewhere.

Happy to take a PR. Not sure what would be the best place to document it.

Perhaps an addition to the "Folder Structure" portion of the user guide:
If you have Git installed and your project is not part of a larger repository, then a new repository will be initialized resulting in an additional ".git/" top-level directory.

That sounds good. Send a pull request?

Hi @ryancogswell,
Feel free to do this if you. If not I am happy to add it as well.

I'll give it a go. I haven't ever done a pull request on github before, but I couldn't have a simpler case to work through for my first time.
