SCM - Commit Diff or Combined Diff does not show file renames or file moves #232947
Open
Description
opened on Nov 4, 2024
When viewing the diff of a commit from the graph, or when viewing the full diff of changes or staged changes, "moved or renamed" files are not shown as such, but they are shown as separate delete and add operations.
Note: I know that a Git commit has no notion of "renames" but most diff tools (including git diff
) use a similarity index to convert any "delete+add" pairs into "rename/move" if they have high similarity. Seems like VS Code diff is completely refusing to do this (even with 100% similarity).
Am I missing a config?
