It says the home directory counts here because it \"is itself\" or \"lies inside\" a git checkout (a folder tracked by git), and gives that checkout's path.\n\n**Why**\n\nIf your home folder is tracked by git, the error now says so and names the folder involved, which can help explain an otherwise puzzling message."}
