Source Control icon in the panel does not indicate about the uncommited changes

Thanks for reporting a bug you have found in Cursor!
Please add the following info to help us diagnose your issue:

:white_check_mark: Check the forum to ensure the issue hasn’t been reported already - Done

:lady_beetle: Provide a clear description of the bug
In a working project, when a new changes are “saved”, the source control icon should ideally indicate ‘1’ (meaning that 1 file has changed). Currently it doesn’t show anything. Although this is not an issue for an experienced dev, for a newbie who’s getting comfy around VS Code and Cursor, I had a hard time pointing out at the exact icon on the GUI where the changes are indicated as a file count. It hurts. VS Code doesn’t have this issue though and I find it weird that Cursor has it.

:arrows_counterclockwise: Explain how to reproduce the bug (if known)

  • Just install Cursor
  • Open any working project
  • Make a file change
  • Save the changes
  • Verify if the source control icon is indicating about the uncommited changes

:camera: Attach screenshots or recordings (e.g., .jpg, .png, .mp4).

:computer: Tell us your operating system and your Cursor version (e.g., Windows, 0.x.x).
MacOS
Version: 0.45.15 (Universal)
VSCode Version: 1.96.2

:no_entry_sign: Tell us if the issue stops you from using Cursor. - Well, for a newbie dev, yes. Sadly terminal and git is still alien to them and its something their engineering degree has not taught them about.
