Describe the feature

It seems that the reference to a submodule is not considered by zed.

Pretty sure you need to init submodules beforehand.

Angelk90 commented 5 months ago

I think we need to do something similar to #12263 like @CFKeef did.

How would that work though? Clone every submodule at startup? I definitely would be against Zed automatically cloning every submodule, as repos with large amounts of them exist.

I think it could be useful to have an icon to indicate a folder is a submodule (like the 'S' in VScode) potentially adding the commit/branch to the hover state might also be useful too.

Zed managing/updating submodules is definitely not the scope of this issue.
