Unlike the other kinds, it's always treated as never having been pre-seeded with content.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis lets Claude Code's directory-sync feature correctly distinguish an empty checkout from other setup methods, which likely affects what it assumes is already present when syncing starts.\n\n- Area: Directory Sync\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5"}
