Description

As a user of the Agents screen I want to be able to see Git changes and execute Repo operations of subdirectories/sub repos. Even if the current folder is not a git repo.

For example:

I have a general project folder which stores both back-end and front-end code. This folder in itself is not a git repo. But the subdirectories have several git repos. It would be more productive to see these changes directly in the Agents view and not having to switch to VS Code (where this feature already exists)
