🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Performance · 🟡 medium · [fix here] — Bound clone diagnostics. cloneSite retains every stderr chunk until close, while pending can retain an unterminated fragment. Git sideband-64k limits packet size, not total diagnostics, so retained memory can grow throughout a clone and may degrade availability. Continue streaming progress, but retain only a bounded diagnostic tail and the extracted fatal: or error: reason for GitError.

Keep the main process asynchronous.
fileSystem.existsSync() runs in fetchDepth() before updateToLatestTrunk() starts its fetch. This call can block the Electron main-process event loop while storage responds. Make fetchDepth() asynchronous and await it when building the fetch options.

Tests 🟡 medium [fix here] — Exercise the bundled-Git partial-clone state.
The fixture creates a complete isomorphic-git clone, not the --filter=blob:none repository created by cloneSite. The existing clone test does not run updateToLatestTrunk. Add an integration case that updates a repository created by cloneSite and verifies that the update preserves its history and does not create .git/shallow.

Flow 1 of phase 3 of #364 (#385): the first write the binary makes, and the one whose blast radius is a repository that did not exist before. src/git-clone.cjs runs `git clone --filter=blob:none --single-branch --branch trunk --progress`, writes the repository config the app relies on at clone time (core.autocrlf=false, core.symlinks=false, and core.longpaths=true on Windows) and turns Git's progress lines into `{ phase, loaded, total }` events, the same `<phase> <loaded>/<total>` line the terminal panel already shows. Partial, not shallow: the whole history comes down without the blobs, which is a merge base for every pull request (#351) at about 57 MB, and nothing the app does afterwards needs a blob that is not there. wordpress:setup hands the child to the quit sweep for the length of the clone and removes the directory it created if the clone fails, so a half-written tree is never adopted as a site. isomorphic-git leaves main.js; its remaining callers are the write flows behind the facades. The wiring tests stub cloneSite where they stubbed isomorphic-git's clone; a new integration test clones from a local repository over file:// (a transport the old engine never had) and checks the config, the promisor remote, the missing older blob and the progress shape. The user guide stops saying Git is isomorphic-git. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01J4uRM5JosAcMbKXowaXyVu
Findings from the judgement pass, all verified against the code. The trunk update re-shallowed the new clone. `updateToLatestTrunk` asked for `depth: 1` unconditionally, and isomorphic-git applies the server's `shallow <newTip>` line before the packfile is written, fails to read the tip it was just told about and records the boundary anyway: the first update a contributor ran threw away the history the partial clone had just paid for, and with it the merge base every pull request needs (#351). The depth now follows the repository, which answers the question itself through `.git/shallow`: sites the old engine made stay shallow and cost nothing more, sites the binary made keep their history. The fetch fixture had been serving a truncated pack whatever the client asked for, and its origin had no history behind the tip, so neither half of the difference was visible; both are fixed, and the new test fails on the old code. Progress no longer reaches a destroyed window. The clone reports from a stderr listener rather than from the awaited chain the old engine used, and on macOS a closed window leaves the app and the clone running, so a send into the dead webContents was an uncaught exception in the main process rather than a rejected invoke. Every send in the handler goes through one guarded `notify`; the clone still finishes and still registers the site with nobody listening. The failed-clone test asserted the store and the tracker but never that the half-written directory was gone, so deleting the removal kept the suite green. It writes into the directory before failing now, and the removal is what the test pins. `LC_ALL=C` is pinned with the rest of the environment. Git's progress phases and its `fatal:` line are the one non-porcelain output the app parses, Git for Windows ships the gettext translations, and a non-Latin locale meant a contributor watched a several-minute clone with no progress at all.

Why
Phase 3 of #364, flow 1 of four: the new-site clone is the write with the narrowest blast radius, a repository that did not exist before, and the one that unlocks the spike's cheapest finding. #385 asks for the
--filter=blob:nonedecision to be taken deliberately rather than by default; it is taken here. Stacked on #402 (reads).What changes
src/git-clone.cjs:git clone --filter=blob:none --single-branch --branch trunk --progress, with the repository config the app relies on written at clone time (core.autocrlf=false,core.symlinks=false,core.longpaths=trueon Windows). Progress comes from Git's stderr lines as{ phase, loaded, total }, the one deliberate exception to the porcelain-only rule: Git has no machine format for progress, and an unparsed line is dropped, never shown.wordpress:setup(src/main.js) calls it, hands the child to the before-quit sweep for the length of the clone, and removes the directory it created if the clone fails, so a half-written tree is never adopted as a site. The terminal line the renderer shows keeps its<phase> <loaded>/<total>shape.main.js. Its remaining callers are the write flows behindtrunk-update.js,ticket-branches.jsandpatch-apply.js, next in the stack.src/trunk-update.js). A site the old engine made is shallow and a depth-1 re-fetch is what keeps it cheap; a site this PR makes has the full history and asking for depth 1 there would make it shallow, throwing away on the first update what the clone just paid for..git/shallowis Git's own marker, so the repository answers the question.Partial, not shallow. A site the app makes now carries the whole history of
wordpress-developwithout the blobs of old commits: 53,413 commits,.gitat 101 MB, in 10.2 s on a home connection (measured below). That is a merge base for every pull request (#351) at the cost of a bigger.git, and no flow the app runs needs a blob that is not there. Rejected:--depth=1(what the old engine did; no history, no merge base) and a full clone (gigabytes).Deliberately not here: a cancel button for a running clone (no renderer control exists today; the quit sweep covers the app closing), the other three write flows, retiring

The depth is right now, pinned by a test against the loopback remote, but whether isomorphic-git's fetch and forced checkout handle a promisor repository over the real remote is unverified; that flow moves in the next PR of the stack, and the two merge together.
Risks and limitations
An editor with blame on a partial clone fetches history lazily. VS Code with GitLens, or
git blameby hand, makes the host Git fetch every missing blob of the file's history (fetch --filter=blob:none --stdin), one round trip per commit; offline, blame fails. The app never runs blame; this is the cost of--filter=blob:nonefor a contributor who opens the site in an editor that does.Trunk update on a partial clone (see above) is the reason this PR is not mergeable alone; it is stacked so the topmost build carries both.

Not reproducible on macOS, whose dugite payload carries noshare/locale, so this is a reasoned fix rather than an observed one.Sites the old engine made are out of support in this series.
