What

The built-in commit, push and pull-request prompt commands used to ship an allow rule for PowerShell(git checkout -b *) alongside the Bash one. It is now filtered out, so creating a branch that way prompts for permission on Windows PowerShell.

Evidence

PowerShell(git checkout -b *)

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