Pull request overview
This PR aims to fix the Sessions “Changes” view failing to resolve/open the correct git repository immediately after a repository is initialized, by persisting repository info to session metadata and using that metadata when opening the repo in the Sessions window.
Changes:
- Prefer
session.metadata.repositoryPathwhen resolving the working directory forgitService.openRepository(...)in the Sessions Changes view model. - Ensure repository initialization persists workspace/repo metadata in order by awaiting
trackSessionWorkspaceFolder(...). - Refactor CLI sessions initialization to build
RepositoryPropertiesexplicitly (and usesatisfiesfor type checking).

| extensions/copilot/src/extension/chatSessions/vscode-node/copilotCLIChatSessionsContribution.ts | Awaits workspace-folder tracking after git init so session metadata is reliably written before follow-up actions. |
