Can't Add Any Extras When Creating the GitHub Project

[alexfinnarn]

Describe the bug

GitHub provides a few options when configuring a new repo like: license, .gitignore file, a README.md, and the Rennovate plugin. If you want to install any of these by default, which I usually do, then you get an error about the remote having newer content.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a repo with a readme during the script
2. See the error.

Why not `git clone ${remoteURL} && git add . && git commit -m "first commit 🎉" since the repo must exist at that point in the script?

git clone is going to create a subfolder. I could git pull but there will be conflicts anyway. I kind of assume that if you use a repo with some content inside, the safest thing to do is to fail. There is no telling what kind of weird stuff might happen if we try to automatically fix the conflicts or force push

Makes sense. Do you think it is a good idea to add a note to the documentation somewhere? I can make a PR if you wish or close the issue if not. The gif/video creates one without any additional configuration, but a non-sighted user won't be able to see that.

I think it would be most appropriate to add a line to https://github.com/mathieudutour/medium-to-own-blog/blob/master/bin/medium-to-own-blog.js#L94.

yep, good idea! Happy to accept a PR to clarify that

Not sure of how to format this the best, but the language makes sense to me.
