What
On a self-hosted runner, the step that refreshes a session's token now uses the whole /remote setup. A self-hosted runner is a machine you run yourself to carry out remote Claude Code sessions. Before this change, the step used only the push address and the token.
The change matters where governed git has direct upstreams. Governed git is the setup that controls how a session reaches git repositories. Direct upstreams are repositories the session connects to directly. In that case, the runner now builds fetch lines from the listed sources. It passes them to the session's git rules together with the push address and the token.
Why
Sessions on self-hosted runners with governed git can now have their fetch settings rewritten, as well as their push settings.

The writer flagged doubtIt is not clear what the fetch lines do in a session.
