Source Control Highlighting Very Old Changes

Hey, thanks for the report. I see the screenshot with old changes highlighted. Looks like a known bug with “stuck” diff decorations. Here are a few workarounds that helped others:

  • Accept/reject changes via the Git panel, not the inline diff UI
  • Cmd+Shift+P → Developer: Reload Window
  • Run without extensions: cursor --disable-extensions
  • In the problematic file, temporarily delete highlighted blocks, save, then immediately Undo

Similar cases:

Need details to escalate:

  • Request ID of the last operation (in chat: top-right menu → Copy Request ID)
  • 2-3 file paths where highlighting is wrong, and git status output for them
  • Short repro steps and if it happens after Agent Review

Let me know if any workaround helps. If not, gather the info above and I’ll pass it to engineers.
