(wrong-type-argument stringp nil) when running projectile in a newly created project

[Toctave]

Expected behavior

When I run e.g. projectile-compile-project in a repository I have just created, it should ask for a compile command and run it. Or maybe it could ask me to define a project directory if it's confused.

Actual behavior

Instead, I get this error and backtrace :

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
  find-file-name-handler(nil file-remote-p)
  file-remote-p(nil)
  projectile-project-root(nil)
  projectile-acquire-root()
  projectile-read-command("Compile command: " nil)
  projectile-maybe-read-command(nil nil "Compile command: ")
  projectile--run-project-cmd(nil #<hash-table equal 1/65 0x180bb50cde1b> :show-prompt nil :prompt-prefix "Compile command: " :save-buffers t :use-comint-mode nil)
  projectile-compile-project(nil)
  funcall-interactively(projectile-compile-project nil)
  call-interactively(projectile-compile-project nil nil)
  command-execute(projectile-compile-project)

If I exit emacs and run it again, then it works correctly.

Steps to reproduce the problem

1. Open emacs
2. Create a new folder and a git repository in it
3. Navigate to that folder
4. Run a projectile command, such as projectile-compile-project
