Body

Description:
"Epic issue #34 has 4 linked sub-issues (#35, #36, #37, #38), all marked as completed/closed. However, the GitHub Projects progress indicator displays '0/1' instead of '0/4'.

Expected behavior: The progress indicator should show the total count of sub-issues (4) and completed count (4), displaying something like '4/4' or at least '0/4'.

Actual behavior: GitHub Projects shows '0/1' regardless of the actual number of sub-issues.

Steps to reproduce:

Navigate to the Project board
View Epic #34 in the project view
Observe the progress indicator
Workarounds attempted:

Refreshing the page (F5)
Navigating away and back to the Epic
Reloading the Project view

Just about impossible to do real work using this system if it can't do basic stuff like, you know, count issues.
