Show and open only the Cursor chats that belong to your current git branch.
Why use it
Cursor keeps one big list of chats. When you work on several branches, it becomes hard to tell which chat belongs to which task. Cursor Branch Chat ties chats to a git branch and shows only the chats for the current branch in the Branch Chats sidebar.
