Why do you want to create multiple repositories rather than just having
multiple modules/directories in a single repository?

Correct -- the repository you specify must exactly match one of the
--allow-root= options for the server.  (Note the "one of" in the
previous sentence -- you're allowed to have multiple --allow-root=
options.)
