For now, I'd rather move forward with this simpler task
and I will revisit the "verify and fix" situation when
it can be done in a focused way instead of being surrounded
by builtin boilerplate and other basics of the maintenance
feature. Specifically, it would help to have a way to test
the logic. In Scalar, I was able to mock the Git commands
and return failures in specific places. A similar approach
could be done here, or perhaps there is another way to be
confident that the "verify and fix" logic is actually
helpful.

Thanks,
-Stolee
