Source for the claim that running git init twice is not harmful: https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-init.html "Running git init in an existing repository is safe. It will not overwrite things that are already there. The primary reason for rerunning git init is to pick up newly added templates (or to move the repository to another place if --separate-git-dir is given)."
