DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Reference / Environment variables

GIT_WORK_TREE

A Claude Code environment variable, read out of the shipped bundle. No mined inventory carries it: everything below comes from what this site has written about it.

What it is

Stray git environment variables in your shell can no longer misdirect worktree operations.

Not Anthropic's. This is the line from the earliest changelog entry here that named it, v2.1.222.

Presence across releases

The miner has never read a build containing this name. It is here because a changelog entry of ours names it, which is evidence that it existed and not evidence of which releases carried it. The inventory starts at v2.1.138 and everything older than that was never mined.

Changelog entries naming it

  1. v2.1.222Worktree git commands run with a scrubbed git environment

    Stray git environment variables in your shell can no longer misdirect worktree operations.

    named in this entry

  2. v2.1.222Git invocations hardened with sanitized args and environment

    Many more git commands now run with a scrubbed environment so stray variables can't redirect them.

Documentation pages

A reference table page is one whose own table defines this name, and it is where the description above came from. A page that mentions it carries the name somewhere in its text and may say nothing about it at all. Every page carrying it.

Names beside it

Every environment variable in the inventory starting git, up to twelve of them.

GIT_ALLOW_PROTOCOLGit calls made while packaging your repo for the cloud cannot fetch or ask for passwords. never mined GIT_ASKPASSNo description from anybody. 2.1.186 GIT_CONFIGRepo git hooks stay suppressed by default, tag pushes excepted, and GIT_CONFIG is now cleared. never mined GIT_CONFIG_COUNTNo description from anybody. 2.1.186 GIT_CONFIG_GLOBALGit calls in the sync path now respect your custom global and system config paths. 2.1.202 GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEMPlugin eval helpers ignore machine-wide git settings so results cannot be skewed. never mined GIT_CONFIG_SYSTEMGit calls in the sync path now respect your custom global and system config paths. 2.1.242 GIT_DIRStray git environment variables in your shell can no longer misdirect worktree operations. never mined GIT_INDEX_FILEStray git environment variables in your shell can no longer misdirect worktree operations. never mined GIT_PROXY_COMMANDEvery git command Claude runs now has hooks, filesystem monitors and prompt helpers turned off. never mined GIT_SSH_COMMANDNo description from anybody. 2.1.160 GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPTGit now runs under fixed environments that block network protocols unless the operation needs them. 2.1.186

Read out of the published npm bundle release by release, and out of Anthropic's own documentation as this site captured it. Nothing on this page is a description anybody here wrote about what the environment variable does. All environment variables.
