Preflight Checklist

  • I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
  • This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
  • I am using the latest version of Claude Code

What's Wrong?

  • Claude adds Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet X.X [email protected] to every commit without asking
  • No way to opt out without editing every commit message
  • Required full git filter-branch + force push across entire repo history to clean up
  • This is your work — AI attribution in commit history is unwanted and potentially problematic (licensing, employer policies, open source projects)
  • Should be opt-in, not default

What Should Happen?

NOTHIGN !!!! DONT ADD IT !!!!
