Opening a local git repository

I'm not quite sure why the 'recently opened' entry disappears. Can you open a GitHub issue for that, please?
To open a repo from the File->open menu you need a somewhat odd syntax.
Go to the directory, then as filename enter '[branchname]' (with the brackets but without the single quotes).
That should do the trick.

However, if I close down Subsurface and reactivate it again, the repository does not appear under the list of recently opened files. Moreover if I go File->open divelog and follow the path to the directory containing the git repo, of course, I cannot see the repo and I have no way to select it in order to open it.
