Reading the source, the key to understanding this is at [1]. Each issue is stored as a new commit tree, and head ref stored at .git/refs/dit/${issue_hash}/head. Issue replies are stored as commits referencing the commit they are replying to and a ref in .git/refs/dit/${issue_hash}/leaves/${reply_hash} Seems pretty neat to me.
