Gus's change of mind and heart points to her accepting that her stubbornness has contributed to the problems in her relationship with Roman.
Gus was angry with the PG, but more than anger her feelings were hurt. No matter how hard she tried, they wouldn't take her seriously. Gus wants information to get justice for Mad so she went on her own. Gus still loves Roman and she knows the only way to resolve her feelings for him is to show trust first. Hopefully, Roman will reciprocate.
I agree, that was a judgment call, a sign of good faith when she told Roman about the cemetery meeting, which he blew up by the way! But Gus took a major step forward, again putting herself out there.
I was really impressed with Gus. Roman hadn't given her reason to trust that he wouldn't steamroll her and take over (which he did, by the way) but she decided to trust him.
I agree, Gus wanted to create good faith with Roman by sharing the meeting with Deep Throat with him. The PG's have been shutting her out, either to protect her or not taking her seriously. She wants in. All the way in. Just like the other women and she deserves to be taken in and treated equally because she has uncovered so much all on her own.
