Whiteboard:

Description Remy Suen CLA 2016-11-05 00:26:09 EDT
Electron 1.2.7

1. Make a change to a file under Git source control.
2. Open the 'Git' page.
3. Expand the diff.
4. Click 'Open the compare page' to open the compare editor in another tab.
5. Click 'Generate Link' in the top right hand corner. It does nothing.

Since Electron runs locally, I feel that the 'Generate Link' button is useless since the link is just going to point to localhost. The command should be hidden if Orion is running on Electron.
