Why do I have to delete everything when creating a new project using t3?

I had just cloned an empty project from GitLab and wanted to use t3. But it keeps on telling me to delete everything even the git initialization too. I wanted to know why I had to clean my directory before creating a simple project where I had already chosen to not initialize a git repo from the t3 cli.

I'd rather use the base NextJS framework than use t3 that keeps on telling me to empty the directory.

Just pick the third option? It just wants to make sure that overwriting the .gitignore is fine with you

that option shows some issues with .git directory. While replacing them

Then just create it in another directory and copy everything but the git files to your repo

Good Suggestion Sir.
