What

Claude Code can take snapshots of a code checkout, and these changes affect how they work:

  • Snapshot state can now be marked as chained.
  • A shallow file outside a git folder is now reported as "not under a directory".
  • A branch in the "unreadable" state now counts as changed.
  • One git step now also works with the objects folder.
Why

The main thing you might see is the "not under a directory" message for such a file.

How sure we are
Something disagreesSomething we can check disagrees with this entry, or the writer said they could not settle it.
The writer flagged doubtThe finding does not say what a chained snapshot means for a reader.
