What

The part of Claude Code that tracks what's been drawn to the terminal screen (to figure out what needs redrawing) gained a blitsOver(rect) method, which checks whether any previously recorded "blit" (block image/content transfer) operation overlaps a given rectangular region.

Why

This is used to decide whether a region left over from a previous frame that wasn't refreshed actually needs to be cleared, which helps the terminal renderer avoid unnecessary or incorrect redraw work.
