Describe the Bug
Attempting to discard untracked files results in an error on Windows and prevents the changes from being discarded.
Steps to Reproduce
- Create a new file in a project that uses git.
- Discard all changes → acknowledge prompt.
Expected Behavior
All changes should be discarded, untracked files should get deleted.
(This has always worked in native vscode and still does in 1.102.1.)

Does this stop you from using Cursor
No - Cursor works, but with this issue
