How to NOT create a folder in git clone?

Question

git

If git clone git://github.com/schacon/grit.gitthen the grit folder will be created
If git clone git://github.com/schacon/grit.git mygritthen the mygrit folder will be created
How to do it if I do NOT want the folder to be created, I am already in the folder from which I launched bash, and I just want the .git folder to appear next to the files without nesting

Clone does not work with already created directories. You can do git init then add origin then pull or fetch
