What
Oversized hook output and error stacks are now cut down the middle with a marker saying how many characters were removed, so a hook that dumps a large stdout produces a readable failure instead of a wall of text.
Details
The count in the marker accounts for characters already elided by nested markers, so it stays accurate.
Errors are formatted as name and message plus at most five stack frames, each clipped to a line length.
Applied to worktree-create hook failure output.
Evidence
characters truncated
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
