Pull request overview
This PR updates the Git extension’s git: FileSystemProvider to auto-open a repository on-demand when serving stat/readFile requests, instead of failing when the repository is not currently opened in the Git model.
Changes:
- Introduces a
getOrOpenRepositoryhelper to resolve a repository, attempting to open it if missing. - Switches
statandreadFileto use the new helper for both regulargit:URIs andsubmoduleOfcases.
