Debug gem conflict with rspec mocks

[imamrb]

Your environment

• ruby -v: ruby 3.3.7
• rdbg -v: 1.11.0

Describe the bug
The debug gem's method in debug/source_repository.rb:38 calls File.exist?, which interferes with RSpec mocks that stub this method for specific file paths. This causes test failures with mock expectation errors when the debug gem is loaded during test execution.

To Reproduce

system('gem install bundler') unless Gem::Specification::find_all_by_name('bundler').any?
require 'bundler/inline'

gemfile(true) do
 source 'https://rubygems.org'
 gem 'rspec'
 gem 'debug', '~> 1.11.0'
end

require 'rspec'
require 'debug'

class MyClass
 def check_if_file_exist?(path)
 File.exist?(path)
 end
end

RSpec.describe "debug gem + File.exist? conflict" do
 let(:target_path) { "config/session_store.yml" }

 let(:my_class) { MyClass.new }

 before do
 allow(File).to receive(:exist?).with(target_path).and_return(true)
 end

 it "stubs File.exist? and avoids debug interference" do
 result = my_class.check_if_file_exist?(target_path)

 expect(result).to be true
 end
end

RSpec::Core::Runner.run([])

Expected behavior
A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

• The test should pass

Hello, I can not ask you to do something. Just something I was facing and thought of reporting.
