+distix tutorial
+===============
+
+distix is a distributed ticketing system. This is a tutorial for the
+command line interface.
+
+Initialise a new ticket repository: `distix init`
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+distix keeps all tickets in text files in a git repository. The
+repository is created (or at least initialised) with the `distix init`
+command:
+
+    distix init my-tickets
+    cd my-tickets
+
+The `init` command takes a directory name as its argument.
+Alternatively, you can create an empty directory, change there, and
+run `init` without an argument:
+
+    mkdir my-tickets
+    cd my-tickets
+    distix init
+
+Use whichever is more convenient for you, they work identically.
