There was a problem hiding this comment.
Small, contained fix in workspace-server's git service treating a 404 from branch comparison as an empty diff, with new regression tests; not risky territory (no auth, billing, data model, deps, or CI changes) and diff matches the stated description.
- 👍 on the PR from greptile-apps[bot].

Problem
Cloud runs can expose their branch name before the branch has been pushed to GitHub. Polling the compare endpoint during that window returns 404 and produces repeated internal errors in the development console.
Changes
Treat a 404 from the branch comparison as an empty diff while preserving all other failures. Add regression coverage for missing branches, successful comparisons, and non-404 errors
