vtcode-core 0.136.3

Core library for VT Code - a Rust-based terminal coding agent
//! Worktree diff verification policies.
//!
//! After a worktree-isolated subagent commits its changes, the
//! [`WorktreeReconciler`](crate::git::WorktreeReconciler) asks a [`DiffVerifier`]
//! whether the resulting diff is safe to merge back into the main branch. This
//! module is the *only* place that encodes merge-approval policy for the git
//! isolation layer.
//!
//! The trait is **sealed**: only types defined in this crate may implement it,
//! so callers (e.g. `SubagentController`) cannot inject an arbitrary verifier
//! that bypasses the controlled merge path.
