/**
 * Git can be weaponized for sandbox escape via two vectors:
 * 1. Bare-repo attack: if cwd contains HEAD + objects/ + refs/ but no valid
 *    .git/HEAD, Git treats cwd as a bare repository and runs hooks from cwd.
 * 2. Git-internal write + git: a compound command creates HEAD/objects/refs/
 *    hooks/ then runs git — the git subcommand executes the freshly-created
 *    malicious hooks.
