Description Tomasz Zarna CLA 2012-05-21 05:37:32 EDT 
From bug 365439, comment 6:

JGit Init command does not support specifying the directory for the new repository (but InitCommand in the api does).

For example:
jgit init my_new_repo
returns:
fatal: No argument is allowed: my_new_repo

You have to create the new directory manually, and the executing "jgit init" from there.
