Research direction

Start from the /chat path and inspect where a new session creates a branch and where Create PR is handled. Define the settings choice between creating a new branch and applying changes to the current branch, then verify both workflows; the reported Create PR delay is a separate concern whose scope is not specified.

Description

Hello.

I think creating a new branch for each new session is headache. Can you add option in settings to choose work with new branch or just apply changes on current.

Also Create PR takes a lot of time, or maybe its just me
