Cursor IDE
Describe the Bug
The Whole Cursor IDE UI freezes on typing into the git commit changes text box.
Steps to Reproduce
- File->open Folder->open some folder which contains a git repo
- make some code changes
- open the git changes tab in the main side bar
- start typing a commit message
After a few characters, the ui completely hangs. No more characters appear, chats progress is not displayed (if any running), interaction with the ide is impossible. After a few seconds, all typed characters appear and also other areas of the ui refresh (like chats).
Expected Behavior
ui should not hang on text input
