Research direction

Start at the conductor extension's workspace git-initialization flow and trace when npm packages are installed and committed. Ensure a .gitignore is created before those commits so node_modules is not added to the git history; verify this with a fresh workspace.

Description

I was working on a new project and started with a fresh workspace. Conductor initialized git, and then installed npm packages and committed each change, including adding everything in node_modules to the git history.
