Positron doesn't need restart for git pane

[hadley]

There remains a problem that I think a positron person will need to look into: during git_ask_commit(message, untracked = TRUE) the git pane pops up an error about unavailable git repository that you have to cancel. This is presumably some kind of race condition (since everything works once I click cancel), but it would be nice to eliminate it.

Yeah, we know we have some work to do re: the vcsRefresh command in Positron's rstudioapi shims: posit-dev/positron#2697.
