Description

Title: Initial user prompt lost when Git setup/snapshot command times out

Body:
A new Copilot app session lost the user’s initial prompt after a Git command timed out after 300 seconds.

Observed behavior:

The UI showed a Git timeout: git command timed out after 300 seconds.
The prompt did not return.
Stuck Git processes remained running, including git worktree add, git reset --hard --no-recurse-submodules, and git add -A.
After recovery, the persisted chat context did not include the original user request.
The earliest stored user message was only the later follow-up: what happened?.
Expected behavior:
The initial prompt should be persisted before or independently of long-running Git setup/snapshot operations, so it can be recovered even if Git times out or child processes remain stuck.

Impact:
Users can lose their original request and cannot recover the intended task without retyping it

No source files or tests are named in the report. Start by reproducing the Git setup/snapshot timeout flow on the /chat path and trace when the initial prompt is persisted; done means a timed-out or stuck Git operation still leaves the original prompt recoverable, with a regression test covering that recovery.
