Yes, it's possible to hang repo creation on create assembly, but you only need that when you first set up the app. After that point, the repo exists, and you can just make updates to the plan (when making a new release, for example), and create new assemblies from it. If the user calls "assembly create" using a plan file that has a requirement like "git-init", that requirement could be fulfilled by a matching "git-init" service. If the repo does not exist yet, the matching service can create one. Otherwise, it can return taking no action. This feature is not necessary if "plan create" has the equivalent, but both wold work exactly the same way. This might be convenient for users who prefer not to bother with creating any plan resources. This cuts one step out of the workflow, but it requires you to keep track of your plan file forever and keep passing it in by value every time you create an assembly, rather than just at initial app creation time. Subsequent assembly creations would be faster when using a reference to a plan that Solum already has, rather than passing it in by value, or causing Solum to download it from a code repo each time. >> One follow up question: under what circumstances will the user need to >> explicitly run "assembly create"?

See my remarks above on this. You might want a plan even in a git-pull scenario if you expect to create multiple matching assemblies.
