Confusing prompt for creating repos #1913

What was confusing or gave you pause?

When creating a new repo using gh repo create every question makes sense until the last one:

? This will create 'your-repo-name' in your current directory. Continue? (Y/n)

As far as I can tell from observed behavior and the source code, this is just a confirmation to create the repository in github and also add it as a remote.

However, the text reads like something will be created in the current directory. What will be created? A sub-directory?

Alternative suggestions, ranked by my preference first:

? This will create 'your-repo-name' in GitHub. Continue? (Y/n)

? This will create 'your-repo-name' in GitHub and add a remote in the current directory. Continue? (Y/n)

Other ideas?
