Description
Git operations such as reverting changes and switching branches don't seem to trigger didChange events for files that aren't open. I think the solution is to hook into the didChangeWatchedFiles event for all files in the ast cache, then vscode will watch for filesystem events.
Being able to switch the branch without restarting the language server would be very convenient.

Research direction
Start by locating the AST cache and the didChangeWatchedFiles handling in the language server. Check how Git branch switches and reverts are surfaced for cached files that are not open. Done means those operations trigger file-change handling without restarting the language server.
