Try the followings. The idea is that product param that MVC model binding to the Action method is not syn'ing with EF, so we need to assocaite it to the repository:

public ActionResult Edit(Product product)   
{
    if (ModelState.IsValid)
    {
        ((ObjectSet)repository.Products).ApplyCurrentValues(product);

        repository.SaveProduct(product);
        TempData["message"] = string.Format("{0} has been saved", product.Name);
        return RedirectToAction("Index");
    }
    else 
    {
        return View(product);
    }
}
