What
Claude Code has a helper that counts changed files and lines using git. It can now be given a root folder. With a root, it counts only files inside that folder, using --numstat for per-file counts. The limit on how many files it counts is applied after that filtering.
Why
Change counts can now describe one part of a repository rather than all of it.
