Research direction

No source file, entry point, or failing test is identified. Start by reproducing the GPG decryption error with Git Credential Manager 2.3.2 on Ubuntu 22.04.3 while accessing GitHub, then trace whether the failure is in credential retrieval or Git authentication. Done means the cause and a verified resolution are documented.
