Hi, thank you for the bug report.

There is currently a non-deterministic bug in the example as you run two asynchronous tasks in a single promise, resolving whenever the first has completed so it isn’t certain that both directories will have been set up before the test runs:

I can look at this later in the week, but you may find it useful to use the integration test section of this repo to set up the two repos before running the tests against them, for example https://github.com/steveukx/git-js/blob/master/test/integration/test-parallel-requests.js#L6

Spawning “many” (in my testing it was anything over 6) child processes cause the exit & close events to return in the wrong order.

Please retry with version 1.105.0 which should resolve this issue. If it persists, please can you follow the pattern in test-concurrent-commands to create a failing test case.
