SYNOPSIS
       glab repo create	[path] [flags]

DESCRIPTION
       Creates	the  new  project with your first configured host in your glab
       configuration. The host defaults	to GitLab.com if not  set.  To	set  a
       host, provide either:

       • A GITLAB_HOST environment variable.

       • A full	URL for	the project.

       --defaultBranch=""	Branch	name  for  the new project, overriding
       both the	GitLab instance	default	and your local git configuration.

       -d, --description=""	 Description of	the new	project. Set to	"-" to
       open an editor.

       thentication.

       --readme[=false]	     Initialize	project	with README.md.	The repository
       is cloned locally after creation	to ensure the local branch matches the

       in. Defaults to origin if not provided.
