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.

CLAUDE_CODE_GIT_BASH_PATH no longer kills the process

Use it now
Useful4 Signal0
Windows Notable

A bad CLAUDE_CODE_GIT_BASH_PATH on Windows now warns and auto-detects instead of quitting.

CLAUDE_CODE_GIT_BASH_PATH
What

On Windows, pointing the variable at a path that does not exist used to print an error and call process.exit(1). It now warns and carries on.

Details
  • Falls back to normal auto-detection instead of exiting
  • The path is additionally rejected unless its basename is bash.exe, sh.exe, bash or sh
  • Windows git-bash lookup only
Evidence

falling back to auto-detection

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
