What
When Claude Code fails to apply a settings file to your home directory during a restore, the failure is now marked as permanent rather than one to try again. A restore can also now end in two new ways:
the restore is switched off
the settings are gone
A record kept in the cache can also hold extra details.
Why
These settings failures are no longer retried.
