## Objective Fix Git Graph showing `0 Changed Files` for commits that modify submodules. This happened because submodule entries are gitlinks rather than regular blobs, so the existing commit diff loading path could not resolve them correctly. I ran into this issue previously, and it was confusing because the commit clearly contained changes, but the UI did not reflect them. If a commit included many file changes plus a submodule update, the submodule change was effectively hidden and the UI could still show `0 Changed Files` for that entry. Since submodules are not used in every repository, the bug is easy to miss and may go unnoticed for a long time. ## Solution - Switched commit diff loading to use Git's raw diff output so submodule entries are represented explicitly. - Added parsing for gitlink entries alongside regular file changes. - Render submodule changes as `Subproject commit <oid>` so they show up in commit diffs instead of being dropped. ## Testing - Added a repository test covering commit diffs that include submodule changes. - Ran the `git` crate test suite. - Ran formatting and lint checks. - Verified the Git UI crate still builds. - Ran and tested it locally on MacOS. Reviewer notes: - The change is limited to commit diff loading and should not affect normal blob diffs. - Submodule changes now appear as explicit entries instead of being counted as zero files. ## Self-Review Checklist: - [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability - [x] Unsafe blocks (if any) have justifying comments - [x] The content adheres to Zed's UI standards ([UX/UI](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist) and [icon](https://github.com/zed- industries/zed/blob/main/crates/icons/README.md) guidelines) - [x] Tests cover the new/changed behavior - [x] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable ## Showcase Before: <img width="200" alt="Screenshot 2026-07-06 at 19 22 57" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/16efc348-5909-4cb0-8589-b0662923df56" /> After: <img width="200" alt="Screenshot 2026-07-06 at 20 20 11" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3201b264-6e61-45de-a9fc-c585f3b54e09" /> <img width="200" alt="Screenshot 2026-07-06 at 20 37 57" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/182ed4e1-9e90-4e33-9136-7626aba31153" /> --- Release Notes: - Fixed Git Graph showing `0 Changed Files` for commits that update submodules.
