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.

Git HEAD check asks git for a yes or no

Under the hood
Useful1 Signal0
Elsewhere

The check for whether your repo has any commits now just asks git directly.

What

The worktree code checks whether HEAD points at a commit by letting git succeed or fail quietly, rather than capturing the commit id and testing it against a hex pattern.

Evidence

"--verify",

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