[Feature Request]: Make git detection optional #6317

What would you like to happen?

For very large git repos the scanning of files is quite slow, making the Hop GUI unusable.
The issue for things like the integration test projects in Hop itself is that the .git/config folder is detected in a parent folder 2 levels up. The issue is that this top level folder contains tens of thousands of files and the projects themselves usually only a few dozen. To make things worse, only partially getting status of sub-folders doesn't seem to be part of the jgit API.
As such it would be better to make searching for .git/config in the parent folders optional with a checkbox in the settings. (GUI only option)
