Option to select the default repo location #150

I absolutely love your app, it quickly became my main Git client.

One thing I was missing was the ability to change the default repo location. I keep my repos in ~/Repos, and I accidentally kept cloning into ~. This PR adds an option to select the default.

I was unsure about the localization; I found that src/preferences/system.rs and src/start_screen/handlers.rs have gettext/ngettext strings but aren't in po/POTFILES.in, so those strings aren't being extracted. So I kept localization outside of the scope of this PR, let me know if I should change that.

Nice, thank you for your contribution! ❤️

I simply forgot to add these files. Can you please add gettext localization and just add the missing files to POTFILES.in?

I will have a closer look on Sunday evening / Monday morning since I am in vacation until Sunday afternoon

I've added the two missing files to POTFILES.in. My strings were already using gettext.

Have a nice vacation :)
