Reintroduce a local not-a-git-repo fallback state in the git log panel so non-repo errors still render the dedicated empty state when workspace state streaming is degraded.
Improve git repository preflight classification by distinguishing missing paths, permission issues, and non-directory targets before checking .git presence.
Add not_a_git_repository to the frontend AppErrorCode union for explicit typed handling.
Consolidate `.git` presence detection into a shared `git_repo` module used by both the workspace state watcher and the command preflight helper, replacing duplicated local definitions.
Introduce `AppErrorCode::NotAGitRepository` (HTTP 422) and preflight eleven frontend-callable git commands (log, status, list-branches, diff, diff-with-branch, show-diff, show-file, push-info, list-remotes, list-all-branches, commit-branches) so non-git folders short-circuit with a structured error instead of leaking locale-dependent git stderr.
Frontend `isNotAGitRepoError` checks the error code first and falls back to a multi-language regex list centralized in `src/i18n/git-error-patterns.ts`, covering the nine languages git actually translates into.
Wire the git log panel to `workspaceState.isGitRepo` rather than a local cached flag, so running `git init` or deleting `.git` externally propagates through the watcher and refreshes the panel automatically.
