Ability to save diff as a `.patch` file
When viewing the diff for a selection against your clipboard contents, it appears that it is not possible to copy or save the actual diff content from the rendered view. I would like to be able to save or copy out the diff in the standard .patch format.
Bonus points if we also had a command to apply a patch from your clipboard to a selection to bring the above functionality full-circle.
This may be a more general VSCode feature request since this plugin appears to defer to the built-in diff previewing functionality, but I wasn't totally sure.
It's actually an interesting suggestion 🙂 And yes, you can copy out the text contents in the diff view but you cannot copy out the diff information.
It could be a tricky on partial diff though, as it would be taking only certain part of your text; so line number or column number in the patch need to be adjusted with the context of whole files.
I am highly interessted in this feature as well.
Same here
