[Development] How to use `init-repository` properly to clean up the working tree after checking out?

[Haowei Hsu]

Hello, Thiago.

The following attachment, *log-git-ls-tree.txt*, is the log that I run *`git
ls-tree @`* command.
Can you discern any clues from this?

BTW,   The remote URL I used to git clone qt5 is from GitHub:

   - https://github.com/qt/qt5.git

And it seems that the default remote URL that `init-repository` used is
from CodeReview:

   - ssh://codereview.qt-project.org/qt/qt5

Is this related to the issue at hand?
