Zed reloads a lot of data about a git repository any time any file changes inside of the
.gitdirectory, with the exception of a few known paths that we know do not warrant a reload, such asindex.lockandCOMMIT_MESSAGE. Previously, we ignored FS events for those files, but we used a specific path that only worked for the main worktree. This caused a lot of unnecessary reloads when using linked worktrees. Now we ignore those files in a general way, by their filename, so that the optimization applies to linked worktrees as well.@cole-miller Noticed this bug.
