We started the work on improvements to the project page when the repository is empty in gitlab-ce#52420. We will continue it in this issue by streamlining the command line instructions we provide. | Current command line instructions | | --------------------------------- | |  | Here are some ideas for improvement: - Remove the git global configuration instructions. This is not project-specific and users will likely have set this up beforehand. If anything, we should link to our docs. - Simplify the instructions. For example, `Create a new repository` has commands for creating a README file, which is not necessary. - Display the clone URL in plain view. - Consider removing `Push an existing folder` option altogether.
