Plugin doesn't handle or indicate an unsafe repository (where the directory owner is not me!)

What happened?

If opening a folder one deep from parent, it only offers the Create initial repository.
If opening the parent folder, it shows that it is git-tracked but does not display any commit history.

Once the git command "git config --global --add safe.directory {pathname}" has been done, everything works as expected.

Thanks for reporting this!

I do want to mention that often times Pulsar uses the version of Git that's already on your System. So please ensure that you're up to date there.

Otherwise for the few tasks that do still use some other version of Git, we will have to see about upgrading those.

It's a windows 7 vm that doesn't have have git already installed. In fact, it was after I installed another editor (that also used its own copy of git) that this one told me it was unsafe and prompted me to trust it the repo, after which I could open it in Pulsar...
