Problem

When a thread's managed worktree folder has been deleted (by storage cleanup or git worktree remove), the thread details panel offers Initialize Git in place of the branch controls. Clicking it fails with VCS process failed in GitVcsDriver.initRepository: git (<worktree path>) exited with 128. Reproduced on main at d890e5c401 in the web app: create a thread in a new worktree, let a turn finish, run git worktree remove <path>, restart the server, and open the thread.

Change

  • Web (GitActionsControl): when the VCS status says "not a repository" and the thread has a worktreePath, the Initialize Git row is replaced by a disabled "Worktree missing" row. A worktree is always a checkout, so running git init there is never correct. Threads without a worktree, on a folder that is not a repository, still get Initialize Git as before. So do No project threads, whose worktreePath is a plain scratch folder rather than a checkout (that case is pingdotgg/t3code#27626). Sending a message still recreates a missing managed worktree through the existing turn-start path.
  • Server (GitVcsDriver.initRepository): checks the folder exists before running git init. If it does not, it fails with the existing VcsRepositoryDetectionError and the detail "The folder does not exist." instead of git's bare exit 128, and creates nothing. Older clients still show the button, and a deleted project root still reaches it; both now get a clear error.

No contract or schema changes. Mobile has no Initialize Git control.

Scope and approval

Fixes pingdotgg/t3code#29062

Verification

Focused tests (both fail on main for this bug, pass on this branch):

  • apps/server/src/vcs/GitVcsDriver.test.ts › "refuses to initialize a repository in a folder that does not exist". On main it fails with expected 'VCS process failed in GitVcsDriver.initRepository: git (…/removed-worktree) exited with 128 …' to match /does not exist/i. The file passes 68/68.
  • apps/web/src/components/ChatView.browser.test.tsx › "does not offer Initialize Git when the thread's worktree folder is missing". On main it fails because the Initialize Git button is found; on this branch "Worktree missing" is visible and Initialize Git is absent. The control tests "offers Initialize Git for a project folder that is not a repository" and "keeps Initialize Git for a No project thread's scratch folder" guard the cases that must not change. The file passes 4/4.
  • vp run check:changed passes: format, lint, knip, typecheck (4 packages), tests, react compiler.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at a24852e

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Missing managed worktrees now show a disabled status instead of Initialize Git, and server initialization reports missing folders clearly. Ordinary project and scratch-folder initialization remain available, with no new destructive behavior.

Walkthrough

The Git actions control now distinguishes non-repository worktree threads from other non-repository folders. The Git driver checks that the target folder exists before running git init. Browser and server tests cover these cases.

Changes: Missing worktree handling

Layer / File(s)Summary
Worktree status in Git actions
apps/web/test/fakeEnvironment.ts, apps/web/src/components/GitActionsControl.tsx, apps/web/src/components/ChatView.browser.test.tsx
Fake thread shells now carry an optional worktree path, and the fake environment supports server-config updates. When Git reports no repository for a worktree thread, the control shows a disabled “Worktree missing” row instead of “Initialize Git.” Browser tests cover this case and initialization for project and scratch folders.
Reject initialization for missing folders
apps/server/src/vcs/GitVcsDriver.ts, apps/server/src/vcs/GitVcsDriver.test.ts
initRepository raises VcsRepositoryDetectionError when the target folder is missing or the existence check fails. A test checks the missing-folder error and confirms the folder remains absent.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Explanation

The changed control, server guard, tests, and fake-environment support all implement or verify issue [#29062]. The current whole-PR diff does not contain the unrelated Changes base-label and tooltip change identified in the previous assessment. No demonstrated unrelated change remains.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue [#29062] requires the thread panel to indicate that the managed worktree is gone and offer to recreate it from the thread branch. GitActionsControl now shows a disabled Worktree missing row and suppresses Initialize Git. The server now rejects initRepository for a missing folder with VcsRepositoryDetectionError. The existing turn-start path can recreate the worktree when a message is sent, but this PR does not add the required panel recreation action. The browser test verifies only that Initialize Git is absent.

Resolution

Add a panel action that recreates the missing managed worktree from the thread branch. Add an automated test that verifies the action.

Offer worktree recreation from this row.

When a worktree is missing, this branch shows only a disabled control. Issue #29062 also requests an action to recreate the folder from the thread’s branch. A user must send a new message to restore the folder instead of recovering it directly. Add a recovery action here and connect it to the worktree recreation path. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Leaving this out of this PR on purpose. Recreation already exists: the next turn start recreates a missing managed worktree from the thread's branch (ProviderTurnStartService), so sending a message recovers the thread. A panel action would need a new RPC that runs the same recreation outside a turn, which is a new capability rather than part of fixing the broken Initialize Git button. That is a product call for a maintainer and can follow separately.

@juliusmarminge Understood. I withdraw this finding for this PR. I treated the panel action requested in #29062 as required for the Initialize Git fix, rather than a separate capability.

The existing turn-start recovery addresses thread recovery. A panel action can remain a separate maintainer product decision.

Would you like me to open a follow-up issue for the panel action, or leave it tracked in #29062?

Review thread resolved.

Add a regression test for filesystem-check failures.

initRepository maps an fileSystem.exists(input.cwd) failure to VcsRepositoryDetectionError. Add a focused test that injects a filesystem error, asserts the mapped error preserves the original cause, and confirms Git is not invoked. This test can catch the earlier fallback that discarded the error. The existing missing-folder test covers only exists returning false.

Evidence

Create a managed-worktree thread, finish a replay turn, remove its checkout, then open the thread’s details panel. Real web app, Chromium, 1280×800, light theme, fresh synthetic data on both commits. The scenario fails on base and passes on head.

Scenario source

AI-assisted; verified with the tests and tools listed above.

Not shown:

  • The server was not restarted after checkout removal; both sides were opened in a fresh browser session after removal.
  • Initialize Git was not clicked, so exit 128 and the separate missing-project error message were not captured.
  • Recreating the checkout from its branch was not exercised; this scenario verifies only the replacement of Initialize Git with Worktree missing.

The automated pipeline stopped on this pull request and will not merge it:

these checks fail on a24852eda7, also when run again: Test Web 2, and the rework changed nothing:

Nothing changed: the one failing check is a flake unrelated to this PR. Test Web 2 failed on CommandPalette.browser.test.tsx:113 (the 'New thread in...' option did not get data-highlighted after ArrowDown in time). That file renders CommandPalette with its own vi.mock of state/entities and does not import test/fakeEnvironment.ts, GitActionsControl, or the server VCS driver, which are the only things this PR touches; browser test files are isolated, so the change cannot reach it. Locally at a24852e the file passes 5/5 on three consecutive runs, and in CI it was the only failure among 2,158 web tests. I could not compare main's CI history because the shared GitHub API rate limit ran out. A rerun of Test Web 2 should clear it. The fix itself is unchanged: a disabled 'Worktree missing' row replaces Initialize Git for non-repository managed-worktree threads, and initRepository refuses a folder that does not exist.

It stays open for a person to finish or close.
