Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?
Cursor IDE
Describe the Bug
When adding the “Diff With Main Branch” Git context item to a chat request, if the diff is sufficiently large (not sure what the exact cutoff is, but it is not difficult to reproduce with a medium sized pull request), then the model does not receive the diff. It appears to work correctly for small diffs, but not for larger ones.
Steps to Reproduce
- Ask Cursor to review a branch
- Attach the “Diff With Main Branch” context item
- Send the chat
Expected Behavior
The model should always receive the diff when I attach this context item.
