First working draft. Some higher level followups:
- when switching chat sessions, auto checkout the branch as well.
- UI treatment - when you checkout out a previous branch, it's not obvious the chat session is restored since before v. after is a wall of text. Need some UI indicator.
- Put this all behind a setting.

Should this use getCurrentBranch()…or does historyItemRef have the actual branch info already?
| return runOnChange(historyProvider.historyItemRef, () => { | ||
| // Fire event when the current branch reference changes | ||
| const currentBranch = this.getCurrentBranch(); | ||
| this._onChangedBranch.fire(currentBranch); |

Do we need to debounce this?
| this._register(this.gitStatus.onChangedBranch(async branch => { | ||
| console.log('Branch changed to:', branch); | ||
| const history = await this.getHistory(); | ||
| const sessionId = history.find(h => h.lastUsedOnBranch === branch)?.sessionId; |

Need to check ordering on this. Ensure history is sorted in an expected way. Ideally, we want the most recent session related to the branch.
