One example is the message saying a file is outside the working directory and that `--restricted` only sends files from inside it. A \"did you mean\" suggestion now appears only when the tidied form matches.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe change only affects how these error messages read.\n\n- Area: File Attachments\n- Names: `--restricted`\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
