# Live Git Config Mount Refresh

## Why

Git-backed Config Profile mounts are currently cloned per instance. Their content cannot be refreshed consistently for running sessions, and writable container mounts can dirty the checkout.

## Change

Move Git Config Profile mounts to profile-scoped canonical host clones. Bind the already-mounted directory sources read-only into compatible instances and refresh a stable branch/ref checkout in place under a per-clone lock.

## Scope

- Canonical clone identity: profile, normalized remote, requested ref, and credential scope.
- In-place refresh for existing directory mounts only.
- Explicit outcomes for live refresh, restart-required topology changes, and refresh failures.
- Read-only container Git config mounts.
- An in-progress indicator that prevents duplicate refresh requests in desktop and mobile Config Profile views.

## Out of scope

- Writable shared Git configuration mounts.
- Global cross-user clone sharing.
- Live mount-topology changes, direct-file mappings, or glob match-set changes.
- Atomic all-files revision switching for processes already reading the mount.
- Automatic refresh of an editor buffer that has already loaded a mounted file.
