Add tests for checkRepo

Add basic tests for checkRepo().

Nice! Do you think we can DRY this up a bit for future tests? I feel like we'll be doing it a lot in other places as well.

For example, maybe we can have functions in configuration_test.go that we use to set-up the test environment that we also use in repositories_test.go. Does that make sense? Food for thought.

I'll work on getting a CI set-up as well.

For example, maybe we can make a makeTestRepo function in this file...then use it wherever we need it in other tests?

Yes it makes perfect sense, before adding more tests we'll need to break down this one into smaller reusable components.

But there is probably an existing module built on top of testingthat is offering test fixtures like setUp and tearDown for this purpose.

Definitely. 👍

I'm sure that library has something in it.

Merging the tests into master!
