[Feature Request] `Ctrl+Shift+B` should consider current selected branch #2351

Description

Currently when using Ctrl+Shift+B, the current branch is the base branch. ("Create branch at")

It would be very cool to base the new branch off the selected branch:

Current branch: dev
Select branch main
Ctrl+Shift+B
Create Branch dialog opens with "Create branch at" main

This works already with a right click on the branch and select "New Branch"

This is intentional behavior. By default new branch is created on HEAD. If you want to create it on a specific commit, you must use right click, as you said.

Another way would be to be able to change the "Create Branch at" (list of branches)?
