Walkthrough
Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to GitOps applies with unchanged, non-empty CA configuration can still fail when no server private key is configured, so the intended no-op behavior should be fixed before merge. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

- Around line 269-273: Initialize the Service instance’s digiCertService field
in the test setup before calling BatchApplyCertificateAuthorities, using
digicert.NewService() or an equivalent mock so validateDigicert can safely call
VerifyProfileID and the expected require.EqualError assertion executes.

Remove the early private-key check.
hasIncomingCAs only proves that the request contains CA definitions. It does not prove that getCertificateAuthoritiesBatchOperations found an add, delete, or update. A non-empty GitOps payload that matches the existing CA configuration will therefore fail here before the no-op return at Lines 513-525. This still breaks no-op applies without Server.PrivateKey.
Rely on the operation-based check at Lines 527-529, and add a regression test for a non-empty payload that produces zero operations.
