What & why

Each temporary repository spawned three git config processes before its initial commit. Write the same repository-local identity and signing settings in one append, then stage the files for each fixture commit in one git add invocation. The tests still exercise real repositories and commits.

How I tested it

• On this branch, macOS arm64 with Bun 1.4.3 and TERM=dumb: from packages/host-service, bun test test/integration/project-setup.integration.test.ts test/integration/sparse-checkout.integration.test.ts — 13 pass, 0 fail.
• This patch was also part of the combined macOS verification for fix(desktop): let IME users confirm text without submitting a chat answer #9625: all 30 repository test tasks passed in one uncached run, with default workers and timeouts. Repo-wide lint and typecheck passed on that combined checkout.

Walkthrough

The Git test fixture now appends identity and disabled GPG-signing settings to .git/config. Its commit helper writes files before staging all paths in one Git command, and skips staging when there are no paths.

Explanation

The title names the main change: fewer git subprocesses when preparing test fixtures in host-service. It uses conventional commit format with the test type and host-service scope. The raw summary confirms the change: git config settings are written in one append and files are staged in one git add call.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description covers the required sections: What & why, How I tested it, and the checklist. It explains the change (three git config processes replaced by one append, and one git add per fixture commit) and gives concrete test commands and results. It does not link an issue, but the template only asks for one when one exists. The How I tested it section has no screenshots, which the template prefers only for user-visible changes; this change is test-only.
