Diff in commit toolbar IDEA


I have commit toolbar (⌘+0 for mac) with a list of changed files and i want to see the diff (⌘D). Currently diff is displayed in editor tab or i can switch it to show in a separate window, no more choice.

But I want to show it next to changelist at the bottom instead of text area with Commit Message and commit button. I know it's possible, but cannot find it anywhere. How can I put it there?

IntelliJ IDEA 2022.1.2 (Ultimate Edition)

Solution

  • The reason is that Local Changes have been moved to a separate Commit tool window. To return it back you can change this in your Settings -> Version Control -> Commit -> Use non-modal commit interface.

    This is should be on Git toolbar (⌘+9), not Commit toolbar (⌘+0)
