claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [BUG] Selecting a custom workspace location outside of the repo does not work [1 comments, 2 participants]

Error Messages/Logs

TL;DR

The issue can be resolved by re-examining the custom worktree location setting to ensure it is correctly configured, as the current setting is being ignored and defaulting to the repository root.

Guidance

• Verify that the custom worktree location is correctly set to the desired directory (in this case, the home directory on Mac) and that the path is accurately specified.
• Check for any typos or incorrect path separators in the custom worktree location setting.
• Attempt to create a new Claude session without the worktree checkbox checked to see if the issue is specific to worktree creation.
• Review the application's documentation or support resources to ensure that the custom worktree location feature is correctly implemented and configured.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue does not involve code.

Notes

The issue is reported as a regression, indicating that the feature worked in a previous version, which suggests that the problem may be related to a recent change or update.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Re-check and re-configure the custom worktree location setting to ensure it is correct, as this may resolve the issue without requiring an upgrade or further changes.
