Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure from the Form1_Load entry point using LibGit2Sharp.Repository.Clone in the setup project, then inspect the NativeMethods type initializer mentioned in the exception. Done means identifying the setup or runtime condition that causes the exception and documenting a reproducible fix or the missing deployment requirement.
