This makes sure that Git failures clients can distinguish from other Process errors (so failure handling can be customized), and that they all have a location. At present the location for an error during a cloning operation is the remote URL, while the operation for an operation on a local clone is the path of the local clone.
We might want to extend this in the future so that local clones also keep track of the URL, but this will require the GitRepository to keep a copy of the associated RepositorySpecifier of its origin remote. This would in turn require a change to the Repository protocol so that all methods take a RepositorySpecificier, and it would require changes to all the clients. So that should be a separate PR, if we do it.
This is a re-opening of a PR (#2958) that was reverted as part of reverting a ToolsSupportCore regression, with the only change being to remove the use of the ToolSupportCore parameter that got reverted. It is not needed for the correct functioning of this PR.
