You can do "anything" to the repository and gitosis will create it.
For example, doing an invalid push will work (you'll need to do this
in a git repository to make git-push happy, but it doesn't matter what
it contains):
git push gitosis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:repo.git :master
Note that _cloning_ such a repository is only possible since 86ac751
(Allow cloning an empty repository, 2009-01-23), which is not in any
released version yet, but will be in 1.6.2.
