How to run create-react-app without git (skipping git)?

I don't want git initialized in my folder when I create react app by

npx create-react-app appName

When I was working with Angular, it was comparatively easier by just typing the command

ng new my-app --skip-git

Can anyone please tell me the related command for React? I tried searching but couldn't find any satisfactory answer.

Solution

  • There's an open GitHub issue for your case.

    TL;DR: There are no current plans to include such an option. The React developers recommend you run rm -rf .git after npx create-react-app appName to achieve these results.
