File SyncArea: what it touches
New FeaturesKind: in v2.1.248,
New FeaturesSection of the release
What
File sync now tells you when it was disabled because git was not on the PATH when Claude Code started, and adds a separate failure reason for a directory that is not a git repository.
Details
The git message tells you to install git there, or add its directory to PATH and restart.
The new bundle-failure reason is not_a_repo.
Evidence
File sync is off for this session: git was not found on the PATH this process started with. Install git there, or add its directory to PATH and restart Claude Code.
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
