GitHub Branch Compare Page Branch Switcher

This is a simple Chrome Extension that I wrote. The purpose of this extension is to improve the UX of the GitHub.com branch comparison page. Have you ever compared a branch o GitHub and wondered why doesn't this icon (see fig1) actually switch the branches that I am comparing?!!

It annoys me so much, I took the time to write this Chrome Extension to add that functionality.
