[BUG] Stale "Commit changes" card shown for a directory that is not a git repository

What's Wrong?

A session working directory (not a git repository — git status returns "fatal: not a git repository") is showing a persistent "Commit changes" / "SiteA main +8,520 -0" card in the UI. This card appeared and has remained visible across multiple turns, even after reloading the session and restarting the app. The directory in question is an SVN working copy, not a git repo.

What Should Happen?

The "Commit changes" card should not continue to be displayed for a directory that is not a Git repository.
