magithub-dashboard requires git repo #319

Hi!

If I run magithub-dashboard in a scratch buffer for instance it says "Not inside a Git repository". Does that make sense? The dashboard is not really bound to a specific repository. I think it would be useful to be able to open the dashboard anywhere!

Would that be possible?

It definitely would be useful and was something I was working on once upon a time :-) it wasn't intended that the dashboard be bound to a git repository. If memory serves, it's a current limitation of magit-mode (which I extend) that I was working on working around.
