pinefarm requires pinecards to be in a repo

[felixhekhorn]

@niclaurenti got hit by the following bug:

in https://github.com/NNPDF/runcards/blob/7f11afce4242791acad47d4c7be393e629b5121d/pinefarm/external/interface.py#L114 we require that we are inside an actual repo (as would be in development mode, so when cloning this repo) - not being so, as can happen e.g. upon pip install pineline[full] and adding some stand alone cards, results in an exception (@niclaurenti if you still have - please paste the full error here)

I guess we should catch that error and eventually leave the field empty

@niclaurenti actually the other problem you faced, i.e. that the grid was not lz4 compressed, is a direct consequence of this bug because you never reached this line here https://github.com/NNPDF/runcards/blob/7f11afce4242791acad47d4c7be393e629b5121d/pinefarm/external/interface.py#L154 which would do it

@niclaurenti if you wish you can even open a PR here and do what I proposed:

I guess we should catch that error and eventually leave the field empty

you already know which exception to catch ;-)

@felixhekhorn the error is the following (running with the pinefarm installed from pip install 'pineline[full]'
