That 'could not retrieve history for ...' thing. #42

I have noticed that if I add a project folder that is not the root node of a git repo I get this message when trying to view the history of a file. The package properly lists all the revisions. However when selecting one to view I get the Could not retrieve history for ... message.

Everythings works like a charm if I use the root git repo node as my atom project folder. Its exactly what I was looking for.

I'm using the latest atom(1.15.0), in Ubuntu.

Anyway, not a big deal. Thought you'd like to know.
