Often I end up pressing h instead of j in diff view. But when I press q to go back, I end up having a single diff view, as against, a split main + diff view.

Is that expected/desired behaviour ? Is there a way to fix this ?

Thanks, Jay.

This is the expected behaviour, which I agree is not optimal. To fix this we'd have to refactor the display management code to keep a proper history of the display states.

Lately, there's been a couple of other requests related to the display management, so ideally the refactoring will help fix all of these.

Thank you.

Going to bump this. History navigation and managing views is currently kind of funky/unintuitive, so it would be great to have something more consistent.

I guess being able to undo maximize of the view back to the previous state might belong here...

I'd also very much like to get back to the split status + diff view after exiting maximized diff view. 🙏
