Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the GitHub Copilot app version 1.1.15 on Windows 10, using a repository with hidden files and files listed in .gitignore. Start by checking the file panel behavior at /chat. Done means both hidden files and gitignored files appear in the panel as expected.
