Fast Way to Switch Branch in Cursor?

Hi,

What’s the quickest way to switch branches in Cursor? Any shortcuts or tips?

Thanks!

In Source Control, you can click the branch name to change branches.

I think asking cursor also does it.

best would be to git checkout <branch-name> though

Why mine is empty:

is is it a git repo?

It would be so helpful if there were a video on how to use the source control in cursor.

Or is alternatively an Git extension available? compared to other IDEs this looks very limited by vscode (which cursor uses).

Thank you all! I downloaded GitLens and found it more useful than the built-in Source Control.
