Make git credential overwriting opt-in during codegen init

Problem

Currently, codegen init overwrites users' git credentials (user.name and user.email) without asking, causing a poor user experience.

Solution

  • Added a new CLI flag --preserve-git-credentials to the codegen init command
  • Modified the git credential handling in RepoOperator to respect this flag
  • Only overwrite git credentials if explicitly requested or if no credentials exist
  • Propagated the flag through multiple layers of the initialization process

Testing

  • Verified that running codegen init without the flag still overwrites git credentials (default behavior)
  • Verified that running codegen init --preserve-git-credentials preserves existing git credentials
