Description

Every time I start the app it has this splash-screen which prevents me from opening a repo from the recent list. To start using Gittyup I have to click open existing repo and then find the location every time. When I've opened a repo (by finding the folder) I can use the recent list on the left to switch between different repos I've opened before, but I can't do this when I open Gittyup after it has been closed.

I was expecting to be able to open recently used repos. What actually happens is that I have to open an existing repo as if it's the first time I've ever opened it using Gittyup.

In your README.md it told me to go to StackOverflow to get help, so I did and this was the response:

Research direction

Start by reproducing the app startup flow described in the issue and read README.md for the documented usage path. Trace how the recent repository list is loaded when Gittyup opens, then verify that selecting a listed repository works before opening an existing repository. Done means previously opened repositories can be selected directly after restarting the app.
