Problem
.git/hooks/pre-commitrunsbarretenberg/cpp/format.sh staged, which lists staged C++ files withgit diff-index --relative --cachedand re-git adds them after clang-format. Git setsGIT_DIRto an absolute path when invoking hooks; inside a worktree that makes--relativeresolve against the wrong root, so the re-add runsgit addon a path that is in the index but does not exist at the expected location — which stages a deletion. Committing inside a worktree therefore silently drops staged.cpp/.hppfiles from the tree. Hit in practice when a merge that touched 34 barretenberg C++ files committed them away.Fix
unset GIT_DIRnear the top offormat.sh, so the relative paths resolve against the worktree root. Same bug and one-liner fix as #22557 (yarn-project/precommit.sh) and #23628 (noir-projects/precommit.sh);format.shis the last pre-commit hook script that still had it.
