Pull repository from somewhere #4

Currently, the repository only uses a local directory in which blog content is stored. This way you can create a simple cron-job to check for updates. It would however be nice to let the blog program itself check for updates.

Things that could be implemented

periodically checking for updates
pseudo-periodically (i.e. if content is loaded and the last update check was 15 minutes ago)
via REST

The currently recommended solution is a cronjob like this:

*/15 * * * * cd ~/blogentries && git fetch && git reset --hard origin/master > /dev/null

A built-in variant should probably be done by adding that functonality to the filestore library.
