What

When Claude Code runs git commands, it now passes through four OpenSSL-related environment variables — OPENSSL_CONF, OPENSSL_CONF_INCLUDE, OPENSSL_MODULES, and OPENSSL_ENGINES — to the git subprocess, the same way it already handled variables like DEVELOPER_DIR and GIT_TEXTDOMAINDIR.

Why

Previously these OpenSSL variables were either dropped or split incorrectly when git commands ran, which could break custom OpenSSL configurations (such as those used for enterprise certificate setups). Passing them through as intended lets such configurations work correctly with git operations.
