What
The built-in guidance Claude Code follows when committing changes or creating pull requests now includes a warning to stage files by name rather than using git add -A or git add ..
Why
Bulk-adding all files can accidentally sweep in things like .env files, credentials, or large binary files that shouldn't be committed; staging specific files by name avoids that risk.
