Allow opening files with large diffs

Open bsShoham opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Hi!

Currently, the behavior is, that on a very large diff, you can only open the file on GitHub (see image). This is kind of frustrating, because the reason for me to get the extension was exactly large diffs that the GitHub website cannot handle and gets laggy, stuck or crashes in

I would wish I could open and review the files directly in vs-code through the extension, because he handles them better and smoother.

Some notes for further investigation later:

We end up in this situation when the GitHub API we use to get the diff doesn't include a patch here.

Any updates here? This defeats the whole purpose of the extension, as often times the files with the most changes are the essence of the PR.
