+SYNOPSIS
+========
+
+lesana init [--help] [--collection <collection>] [--no-git]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+
+lesana init initializes a new lesana collection.
+
+It will create the directory (if it does not exist) and, unless
+``--no-git`` is specified it will initialize it as a git repository and
+create a ``.gitignore`` file with some relevant contents.
+
+It will then create a skeleton ``settings.yaml`` file and open it in an
+editor to start configuring the collection.
+
+When leaving the editor, again unless ``--no-git`` is used, it will add
+this file to the git staging area, but not commit it.
+
+OPTIONS
+=======
+
+--help, -h
+   Prints an help message and exits.
+--collection COLLECTION, -c COLLECTION
+   The directory where the collection will be initialized. Default is .
+--no-git
+   Do not use git in the current collection.
