getRepositories taking a lot of CPU when opening a folder with 20000 files in root

[Tyriar]

Repro:

1. Windows
2. Open an empty temp window
3. Run in pwsh: 1..20000 | ForEach-Object { [System.IO.File]::Create("d:\Playground\many_files\file$_.txt").Dispose() }
4. Open terminal and type ./ (maybe not needed)

Trace:

Can you repro with the Copilot Chat extension disabled?

Just tried what I think the steps were and it didn't show this time:

Those blocks are my code that I was trying to investigate at the time.

Are you saying that you are not able to reproduce any more even with the Copilot Chat extension enabled or disabled? I am asking since I know that the Copilot Chat extension does make calls to the git extension api for each file in the workspace. I believe that @lramos15 owns that code path in the Copilot Chat extension.
