What
When Claude Code checks the health of a git repository, it can now recognize a specific kind of failure: objects that appear to have been tampered with. This is reported as a distinct tampered_objects cause, along with a count of how many objects were flagged, rather than being lumped in with generic git errors.
Why
Separating this out makes it clearer, when a repository check fails, whether the problem is ordinary git trouble or something more concerning like altered objects, and gives a concrete count to act on.
