Config WSL with [desktop](https://github.com/desktop/desktop)?

[timsu92]

In the docs, it says I can config WSL without Git for Windows. It asks me to install latest GCM first, and then config Git to it.
However, there's a git-credential-manager-core.exe in GitHub Desktop's installation location as well. I wonder if we can use it directly instead of installing a new software?

Currently, I have GitHub Desktop 3.0.3 comes with GCM 2.0.632 installed on Windows 11. In order to check file consistency, I downloaded the zip file of GCM 2.0.632 and compared C:\Users\TimSu\AppData\Local\GitHubDesktop\app-3.0.3\resources\app\git\mingw64\libexec\git-core with <the zip file>\gcmcore-win-x86-2.0.632.34631, and here are their differences:

file name	file in Desktop	file in GCM standalone
Atlassian.Bitbucket.UI.Shared.dll	Yes, larger	Yes, smaller
git-bisect	Yes	No
git-filter-branch	Yes	No
GitHub.UI.Shared.dll	Yes, larger	Yes, smaller
67 files start with git-lfs	Yes	No
5 files start with git-merge	Yes	No
mergetools	Yes	No
git-quiltimport	Yes	No
git-request-pull	Yes	No
git-sh-i18n	Yes	No
git-sh-setup	Yes	No
git-submodule	Yes	No
git-subtree	Yes	No
git-update	Yes	No
git-web--browse	Yes	No
validatesign.timestamp	No	Yes
WebView2Loader.dll	No	Yes

As I'm a newbie to Git, I don't know what do those file differences mean. But if it's feasible to use GCM brought by Desktop, it's gonna be great since Desktop checks for updates every time it starts up, but GCM don't.
However, doing this requires a helper, I guess, because the file structure isn't like that is of GCM. It seems that Desktop put different versions of it into different folders, while GCM just replaces old files.

What do you think? Do you think this is something should be put on to-do list?
