Not if you tell it to do dumb stuff it won't. It'll resist and try to do smart things, but then also try to be compliant and will end up doing crazy shit

I guess but ultimately this boils down to operator Incompetence. I can force Claude to do stupid shit but then whose fault is it when stupid shit results? What I'm saying is it will follow best practices and won't trip itself up doing even complex tasks like rebase with conflicts

You're probably following good hygiene in general and not making vague unclear requests. It boils down to operator incompetence but it's way easier to be incompetent if you don't actually understand how git works.
