Search string in modified pull request files
Thanks for this amazing extension, works like a charm 🎉
A feature I'd be looking forward to is to limit the VSCode in-built search to files that were modified in the currently checked out pull request. Additionally, an option to only search in the modified lines of these files would also be great.
This feature could help get a better understanding of what a PR changed as you would be able to easily search in it for strings you've seen somewhere in the modified lines and find out about its usage and how files are related to each other. Without this limited search, many more occurrences of a given string in the entire codebase might show up making it harder to discern what was changed in the PR and what not.
Cool idea! @andreamah is this something that the search API you've been working on might enable?
Hmm. Since the files will still be of file scheme, the fileSearchProvider and textSearchProvider won't apply to this case. It's mostly if you have a custom filesystem / scheme.
Hi @Splines , @alexr00 , @andreamah is this merged in? If so how do I use it?
@Tushar1729-k "Duplicate" does not mean that a feature request was implemented, instead just that there was already another issue that requested the same feature, see #5752, which is open.
