It is not new to 1.12.3. It has been a feature since forever.

Huh? I didn’t notice that before. :joy:

I might have seen it before, but then forgot about it. :joy:

It’s hidden by default. You can enable this pane with View → Toggle Changed Files Pane. We should note it in the manual. :memo:

I used the Changed File Panel frequently before, but I never noticed the “Diff” and “Revert” buttons. This is probably because the background color of these buttons is so similar to the color of the Changed File Panel.

Unless you’re specifically looking for them, it’s difficult to spot these buttons. :joy:

Good note, @vlaaad maybe we could adjust it?

They are “faded” (disabled) when no change is highlighted. When you click on a change they become “active” and bright.
