Description Susan McCourt CLA 2012-02-03 02:58:01 EST 
I am browsing a large commit to figure out if I just broke something, and I find it quite cumbersome.  I realize there are bugs for future releases for having the diff area in the commit page be configurable (and hopefully expandable/collapsible).  In the meantime though it would be really helpful to have:

- a link to open/edit the file (could just be the file name that is currently static text)
- a link to the two-way compare
Comment 1 Susan McCourt CLA 2012-02-03 02:59:00 EST 
Szymon, do you think we could add some links in 0.4 and then revisit in 0.5 with collapsible/configurable diff areas?
Comment 2 Szymon Brandys CLA 2012-02-03 04:39:48 EST 
I can add links for .4.
