What

Claude Code checks for lock or swap files that some editors create while a file is open, to avoid conflicting edits. It now also recognizes the Emacs lock-file naming pattern, .#filename, in addition to the patterns it already checked.

Why

This lets Claude Code detect when a file is currently open in Emacs, the same way it already detects this for other editors, and avoid conflicting with it.
