What
Claude Code cleans up old worktrees left by jobs. A worktree is a separate working copy of a git repository. It now stops early if a worktree was changed recently, and checks its age a second time just before removing it. Before, the age was checked once.
Why
This makes it less likely that a worktree still in use is removed.
