Claude Code already showed an error when such a clone could not be uploaded. That error now adds two pieces of advice:\n\n- A full clone, made without `--filter`, would upload.\n\n- A lost index object can be restored by running `git rm --cached <path>` and then `git add <path>`. The index is git's list of what is staged for the next commit.\n\nA pattern now also recognises the related git error messages, so they get this advice too.\n\n**Why**\n\nIf you hit this error, it now tells you how to get past it instead of only reporting the failure.\n\n- Area: Cloud Sync\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5"}
