When you're in the terminal and know what you want to do but don't quite know how to get it done, Cursor can help you.
Here we'll demo to complex git commands that I would normally have to research and look up flags for but by articulating what I want to cursor, it writes the command for me.
For example, I want to get all the files staged for commit and sort them by number of lines affected. Within seconds, Cursor will generate:
git diff --cached --numstat | sort -rn
