Hi, We kind of got similar issues with the merge dialog I think. We often got the case that we want to select multiple revisions to merge, but still be able to see the changes of a single revision to validate if we can merge that revision as well. Currently I always have to completely remove the selection again and redo it after I checked the specific revision.
Like it is now, the checkbox is always checked if the revision is selected and unchecked if the revision is not selected. So I'm not sure why it is even there then. Would be nice if the merge workflow could be improved to save some time. Best regards, Stefan Manuel Leithner schrieb am Dienstag, 25.
