Multi root workspace wrong context

Support Bug Reports

using @diff or @branch in chat in multi root workspace only passes the git changes from the first project (in my case)
i have not found a way to change this behavior, I tried changing the git repository in cursor (selection between the two projects in cursor in multi root workspace)
any way we could get this implemented?

Hey, thanks for the report. This is a known issue: @diff and @branch in a multi-root workspace currently only work with the first repository.

Temporary workaround: open each repo as a separate workspace when you need to use @diff or @branch for a specific project.

The team is working on improving multi-root support. There are a few related issues in the backlog:

Iā€™m tracking your thread and will share updates when we have them.
