Description Sindhu S 2013-04-29 15:36:05 UTC 
Currently Gitg (from Git master) fails silently when opening an invalid Git repository. 

Desired behaviour: Show an error to either stderr or popup a error dialog.

Note that this behaviour was tested against repositories with no .git/config file and no .git/HEAD.
