Describe the bug

When using Warp on Windows with a Git repository located inside WSL, the Code Review / diff panel does not load correctly.

Initially, Warp showed a Git error related to dubious ownership / safe.directory for the WSL repository. I fixed that by adding the repository as a safe Git directory from PowerShell.

After that, the ownership error disappeared, but Warp’s Code Review panel still hangs on “Loading open changes...” and shows an extremely large diff count:

+2409976 -2409951

This does not match the actual repository state. My IDE shows only 3 changed files.

To reproduce

1. Open Warp on Windows.

2. Open a Git repository located inside WSL, for example:

   \wsl$\Ubuntu\home\gp\GitHub\LE2

3. Try to open the Code Review / diff panel.

4. If the dubious ownership error appears, add the repo as a safe directory from PowerShell:

   git config --global --add safe.directory '%(prefix)///WSL$/Ubuntu/home/gp/GitHub/LE2'
   git config --global --add safe.directory '%(prefix)///wsl.localhost/Ubuntu/home/gp/GitHub/LE2'

5. Reopen Warp and try the Code Review / diff panel again.

6. The original ownership error no longer appears, but the Code Review panel stays stuck loading and shows millions of changed lines.

Expected behavior

Warp should correctly detect and display the actual Git changes in the repository.

In this case, it should show only the 3 modified files that are visible in my IDE and Git status, instead of calculating millions of changed lines or hanging indefinitely.

Screenshots, videos, and logs

I’m attaching:

• Screenshot 1: Initial Git error about dubious ownership / safe.directory.
• Screenshot 2: Warp Code Review panel stuck on “Loading open changes...” while showing a huge diff count.
• Screenshot 3: My IDE showing the actual repository state with only 3 changed files.
• Warp logs downloaded from the app.

Operating system (OS)

Operating system and version

Windows 11

Shell Version

Windows = PowerShell 7.5.5 / WSL = zsh 5.8.1 (x86_64-ubuntu-linux-gnu)

Current Warp version

Regression

No, this bug or issue has existed throughout my experience using Warp

Recent working Warp date

No response

Additional context

Relevant environment / command outputs:

Windows Git:

where.exe git
C:\Program Files\Git\cmd\git.exe

git --version
git version 2.51.1.windows.1

WSL Git:

which git
/usr/bin/git

git --version
git version 2.53.0

This seems related to Warp using Windows Git against a repository stored inside WSL through a UNC path.

The dubious ownership issue was resolved by adding safe.directory entries from PowerShell, but the Code Review panel still appears to miscalculate the working tree diff and hangs indefinitely.

The repository works correctly from WSL and the changes are also displayed correctly in my IDE. The issue seems specific to Warp’s Code Review / diff integration when working with a WSL-based repository from Windows.

Does this block you from using Warp daily?

No

Is this an issue only in Warp?

Yes, I confirmed that this only happens in Warp, not other terminals.
