Cursor not showing repos in git changes tab

Describe the Bug

as of the last update, if you open a folder which contains multiple repos or git submodules, cursor is no longer listing all of them, it’s just displaying one at a time if you have a file open in that specific repo

Steps to Reproduce

open a folder that contains multiple git repos

Expected Behavior

you should always see the list of repos you have, right now i have several changes in different repos which i dont see in the git changes tab.

ex:
project_name:

  • frontend repo → code changes
  • backend repo → code changes

git change tab:

  • frontend repo → shows the changes
  • backend repo → not listed, it’s like it doesn’t exist

because i have a file open in frontend, the changes tab shows me there’s one repo in my project folder (frontend) and shows me only the changes in there

Operating System

MacOS

falling back to VSC until solved

Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable
