If I cancel retrieval of a patch set and then select the Fetch button I get the following exception:

java.lang.NullPointerException
	at org.eclipse.mylyn.internal.gerrit.ui.factories.AbstractPatchSetUiFactory.getGitRepository(AbstractPatchSetUiFactory.java:105)
	at org.eclipse.mylyn.internal.gerrit.ui.factories.FetchUiFactory.execute(FetchUiFactory.java:32)
	at org.eclipse.mylyn.reviews.ui.spi.factories.AbstractUiFactory.handleExecute(AbstractUiFactory.java:81)
	at org.eclipse.mylyn.reviews.ui.spi.factories.AbstractUiFactory.access$0(AbstractUiFactory.java:79)
	at org.eclipse.mylyn.reviews.ui.spi.factories.AbstractUiFactory$1.widgetSelected(AbstractUiFactory.java:72)

This is occuring because we're allowing the user to trigger a fetch when a Remote object is not available. (Because the user cancelled the retrieval.) We need to prevent from getting to this point. (Though the user won't be able to accomplish what they want any better, at least it will be a nicer error message.)
