git not found in Cursor

Ran into this issue this morning after yet another Cursor update.

The error message disappeared too fast for me to grab the exact text, but the heading on the message said git not found and Cursor would not show the current branch in the status bar.

xcode manages git

Turned out after chatting with Cursor that xcode is managing my version of git and for some reason I hadn't accepted the license. Can't remember every being asked so not sure how that happened.

sudo xcodebuild -license

Accept the license, restart Cursor and you should be good to go.
