## Message

```
Fix watching of Git repo in presence of scanner restarts (#37052)

The scanner is restarted after loading initial settings, and there was
an optimization to not re-discover and re-watch git repositories if they
already exist in the snapshot. #35865 added cleanup of watches that
occurred when the scanner restarts, and so in some cases repos were no
longer watched.

Release Notes:

- Linux: Fixed a case where Git repositories might not be watched for
changes, causing branch switching to not update the UI.
