Feature Request: Review changes across multiple commits in Git Graph

[GeederAgent]

Hi! I'd love to be able to select several commits in Git Graph and review their combined changes, similar to the workflow in IntelliJ IDEA.

The part I miss is reviewing a stretch of history as a whole instead of opening each commit separately. It gets especially awkward when commits from other branches are mixed into the list.

What I have in mind:

• Shift-click to select a range, and Cmd/Ctrl-click to add or remove individual commits—even when other branches are interleaved.
• A cumulative diff for consecutive commits in history, including the oldest selected commit's changes.
• A snapshot comparison for two separate points in history.

Here's a short demo from the local implementation I've been testing:

git-graph-multi-commit-demo.mp4

There's also a working branch in my fork. I'm sharing this as something to discuss, rather than assuming the current interaction is the final design.

Related: #61318 focuses on comparing a file with its own history; this request is about repository-wide selections in Git Graph.

Would this fit the direction for Git Graph? I'd be interested in feedback on the selection and comparison behavior before opening a PR.

AI tools helped with the implementation and the English wording here. I tested the workflow locally and recorded the demo above.

Sorry the subtitle seems a little wrong, In the last scene the word should be Complete instead of Complte.

Hi! Just following up on this. I have tested the implementation locally and shared a demo above. Would this be a welcome addition to Git Graph, and would it make sense to prepare a PR? I would like to check that the direction fits before opening one. Thanks!

Hi! Checking back on this proposal. I would still find it useful to review a group of commits as one diff, especially when other branches are interleaved in the graph. Is this a direction the team would be open to? The demo and working branch are linked above. Happy to adjust the interaction based on feedback. Thanks!

Does anyone see this? I really want this feature.

Similarly I'd like to be able to shift+select a series of commits in the history tab and view the combined diff like you can do in the Github desktop app
