Repository navigation
Do not output exception if .bib file is not under version control #11
Description
I got following exception when starting JabRef:
2025-08-31 20:39:48 [JavaFX Application Thread] org.jabref.logic.git.GitHandler.hasRemote()

I think, this is not needed - for hasRemote() there should be no exception if the repository is not a git repository
Maybe, the method should not be called at all in the case, it is not a git repository?
