What
Claude Code keeps several internal caches about repository identity, such as which root directory a path belongs to, its canonical root, its remote slug, and its git directory. A new helper walks these caches and evicts any entries whose key path matches or contains a given path.
Why
This prevents stale repository-identity information from lingering after a directory is moved or a repository changes, which could otherwise cause Claude Code to misidentify which repository or root a path belongs to.
