0. Start as a new user with an empty workspace.
1. Go to the Repositories page and init 1 new repo.
2. Now try to create a 2nd repository. 

It is impossible in the current Git UI, because:

a) The All Repos view is inaccessible. When I go to git-repository.html#, it immediately focuses on my 1 existing repo, so the "Clone Repository" command is not visible.

b) You cannot init a repo from the file navigator. The only command that mentions Git is "New > Project > Git Repository", but this just creates new project backed by an existing Git repo cloned from somewhere else.

We should fix at least one of these, but ideally both IMO.

Once you create a second git repo on your disk, the top level page comes back

This is longer a problem in the new git page.
