Hey, thanks for the detailed report. This is a known issue. The count badge showing the number of changed files on the Source Control icon in Cursor doesn’t render reliably. scm.countBadge doesn’t behave the same way as in stock VS Code. We’ve already logged this on our side, but I can’t share an ETA for a fix yet.
As a temporary workaround, open the Source Control panel with Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+G. You’ll see the full list of pending changes and their status there.
You’re not the only one asking for this. There are a few threads about it, for example Source control manager: show changes count badge on icon. If there’s an update, I’ll follow up.
