when editing a post, clicking on 'Synch with Github' loses your post with no recovery
If you are editing a post and click on "Synch with Github" then it loses your post and takes you to another page with no warning. 

![image](https://res.cloudinary.com/hpiynhbhq/image/upload/v1512818892/dl9qhuocmhnvpq4vhej0.png)

My suggestion is to add in a dialog that asks you if you want to leave the page.

It should say :

> You are editing a post, do you want leave the editor and go to the github page?

Also my post was lost and not even saves to drafts, therefore I consider this a bug because it lost my data.

Also on this topic, I noticed that not all my 1000+ projects loaded which is why I wanted to sync. Also this error occurs when you just click on a project in your github connection as well.

I was also seeing api errors but not sure why as described here 
https://utopian.io/utopian-io/@walnut1/bug-hitting-the-api-users-account-repos
maybe it was before I ran the sync.

While testing this feature again I seriously broke the utopian UI
https://steemit.com/utopian-io/@h4ck3rm1k3st33m/major-utopian-io-breaks-if-you-cancel-the-github-connect so I cannot continue testing.
