run git init from "."
Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/andrew/work/_spikes/thud/.git/
run git add . from "."
run git commit -m First commit from "."
error: pathspec 'commit' did not match any file(s) known to git.

have to escape the git commit message
eg:

git :commit => %Q{ -m 'First commit' }
