// Stdin is used for passing input to the command
// The caller must make sure the Stdin writer is closed properly to finish the Run function.
// Otherwise, the Run function may hang for long time or forever, especially when the Git's context deadline is not the same as the caller's.
// Some common mistakes:
// * `defer stdinWriter.Close()` then call `cmd.Run()`: the Run() would never return if the command is killed by timeout
// * `go { case <- parentContext.Done(): stdinWriter.Close() }` with `cmd.Run(DefaultTimeout)`: the command would have been killed by timeout but the Run doesn't return until stdinWriter.Close()
// * `go { if stdoutReader.Read() err != nil: stdinWriter.Close() }` with `cmd.Run()`: the stdoutReader may never return error if the command is killed by timeout
// In the future, ideally the git module itself should have full control of the stdin, to avoid such problems and make it easier to refactor to a better architecture.
