Yes a new repo is required. Github will render html checked into a
repo called https://github.com/numpy/numpy.github.com at
http://numpy.github.com. Since the html is built from reST sources
using Sphinx, we'd need a repo for the website source
(https://github.com/numpy/numpy.github.com) and a repo to check the
built html into (https://github.com/numpy/numpy.github.com). To update
the website will require push permissions to both repos.
