The pre-push hook now provides better guidance when beads JSONL has
uncommitted changes:
- Interactive terminals: Prompts to auto-run 'bd sync' (y/N)
- Non-interactive/CI: Shows 'bd sync' command to run
- Fallback: Manual git commands if bd not available
This addresses the UX issue where users weren't sure they should
run 'bd sync' instead of manual git commands.

Oracle identified a critical race condition in the initial fix:
- Pre-push hook checked for changes but didn't flush first
- Pending 5s-debounced flushes could land after the check
- Result: stale JSONL could still be pushed
Improvements:
1. Pre-push now flushes pending changes FIRST (bd sync --flush-only)
2. Uses git status --porcelain to catch ALL change types:
- Staged, unstaged, untracked, deleted, renamed, conflicts
3. Handles both beads.jsonl and issues.jsonl (backward compat)
4. Works even without bd installed (git-only check)
5. Pre-commit stages both JSONL files (simpler loop)
This completely eliminates the race condition.
The original pre-push hook tried to export DB → JSONL during the push,
then run 'git add', but this doesn't work because:
1. The commit is already created when pre-push runs
2. git add in pre-push stages files for a FUTURE commit
3. The current push sends the old commit with stale JSONL
4. Result: dirty git status after push
Fix:
- Pre-push now CHECKS for uncommitted JSONL changes
- If found, it FAILS the push with clear instructions
- User must commit JSONL before pushing
- This prevents stale JSONL from reaching remote
The pre-commit hook already properly flushes changes, so this
catch-all prevents changes made BETWEEN commit and push.
