Description

In this invert repo, we have an "examples" project, but the links to the sources are broken in the report because it is in a subdirectory.

This can be fixed by computing the delta between the root of the gradle project and the root of the git repo. It would need to be stored in the project metadata.

Research direction

Start by locating the project metadata handling and the report code that generates source links. Trace how the Gradle project root and Git repository root are determined, then verify that the examples project's links resolve correctly when those roots differ.
