Test: Better Merge complete diff view #74473

Description

@rebornix

Refs: #74231

Authors: @rebornix

Complexity: 2

Previously when you try to compare changes of a merge conflict, there is no context around the changed/modified code and it always shows in current active editor. This month we improved the experience by

  • When we compare the change in a merge conflict, we show complete diff of the whole document and scroll to the position of the merge conflict
  • User can use merge-conflict.diffViewPosition to control the position of the diff view, we now support three values with the api limitation
    • "Current", which is the legacy behavior
    • "Beside", depends on the value of workbench.editor.openSideBySideDirection and it will not create a new editor group if the sibling editor group exits
    • "Below", it will always create a editor group below
