//! What:
//!  Decide what one `git` invocation of the native wrapper does,
//!  and perform it.
//! Why:
//!  The executable stays thin:
//!  it gathers process facts,
//!  asks this module for an
//!      action,
//!  and performs it.
//!  The decision itself is testable without replacing
//!      the test process.
//!
//! In TS you'd write (pseudocode):
//! ```ts
//! // const action = planInvocation(args, env, inputs); perform(action);
//! ```
