Claude Code v2.1.248

Clearer reasons for file sync being off

You'll notice
Useful2 Signal2
File Sync

File sync now says when it was off because git wasn't on PATH or the folder isn't a repo.

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.
