Switched order of actions when doing repo rescan.

doing invalidation after repository scan is not optimal.
In case of big repository we first create an instance then invalidate
cache that we don't actually need. Reversing this order prevents that

=========================
Contributing to RhodeCode
=========================

If you would like to contribute to RhodeCode, please contact me, any help is
greatly appreciated!

Could I request that you make your source contributions by first forking the
RhodeCode repository on bitbucket_
https://bitbucket.org/marcinkuzminski/rhodecode and then make your changes to
your forked repository. Please post all fixes into **BETA** branch since your
fix might be already fixed there and i try to merge all fixes from beta into
stable, and not the other way. Finally, when you are finished making a change,
please send me a pull request.

To run RhodeCode in a development version you always need to install the latest
required libs from `requires.txt` file.

after downloading/pulling RhodeCode make sure you run::

    python setup.py develop

command to install/verify all required packages, and prepare development
enviroment.


After finishing your changes make sure all tests passes ok. You can run
the testsuite running ``nosetest`` from the project root, or if you use tox
run tox for python2.5-2.7 with multiple database test.

| Thank you for any contributions!
