Isn't this just Windows shell effectively having ./ at the head of its search path (even though it's not literally in the PATH var), and vstudio using Process.Start() or something to launch "git.exe" with the repo root as CWD? I don't think they're intentionally trying to use a local version of git.
It's basically the same as if you cd to that repo root in a cmd.exe shell and typed "git.exe" -- I'm pretty sure that has the same behavior.
You wouldn't see it on MacOS or (most) Linux distros.
(sorry, this is from memory/ddg, have no Windows box atm to check)
