Fixed pnpm patch-commit failing with "unable to access '/.config/git/attributes': Permission denied" error in environments where HOME is unset or non-standard (Docker containers, CI systems).

The issue occurred because pnpm was setting HOME: '' and USERPROFILE: '' to suppress user git configuration when running git diff. This caused git to resolve the home directory (~) as root (/), leading to permission errors when attempting to access /.config/git/attributes.

Now uses GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL: os.devNull instead, which is git's proper mechanism for bypassing user-level configuration without corrupting the home directory path resolution.

Fixes #6537
