I think that it is safe to remove it totally. |

@MarkEWaite I have totally removed the onLoaded method |
Preserve API compatibility for consumers. Low risk to delete it, but it is simpler for maintainers if we retain the method rather than answer later questions about its removal.

Remove dead code:
DescriptorImpl.getOldGitExe()always returnsnull, so theif (desc.getOldGitExe() != null)block inonLoaded()never runs. This removes that block, the unusedgetOldGitExe()method (and its Javadoc), and the now-unuseddescvariable soonLoaded()is an empty initializer.Testing done
Refactor/cleanup only: no behavior change. The removed code was unreachable because
getOldGitExe()always returnsnull. Ran the existing test suite (e.g.mvn test) to confirm nothing regresses. No new tests added for removal of dead code.Submitter checklist
