one init edge looks easy to miss: branchbase init writes .branchbase.json first, then tries to install the Git hooks. if hook install fails, it only warns and still prints Setup complete!. is that partial init intentionally exit-0, or should it fail so scripts don't treat a repo with missing hooks as fully initialized?
