webui: implement multi-file diff view with continuous scrolling
Replace file selector with GitHub PR-style continuous scrolling through
multiple files in a single view, improving diff navigation experience
while maintaining all Monaco editor features.
Problem Analysis:
The existing diff view required users to navigate between files using a
dropdown selector and Previous/Next buttons. This created friction when
reviewing multi-file changes and broke the natural scrolling flow that
users expect from GitHub PR views or other modern diff interfaces.
The limitation was that Monaco doesn't provide a built-in multi-file diff
widget, requiring custom implementation with multiple IStandaloneDiffEditor
instances properly configured for stacking and auto-sizing.
Implementation Changes:
1. Multi-File Layout (sketch-diff2-view.ts):
- Replaced sketch-diff-file-picker with simple file count display
- Implemented renderFileDiff() to create separate diff sections per file
- Added renderFileHeader() with status badges and path information
- Created multi-file-diff-container with vertical stacking layout
- Added loadAllFileContents() for parallel content loading
- Replaced single originalCode/modifiedCode with Map<string, FileContent>
2. Monaco Auto-Sizing (sketch-monaco-view.ts):
- Configured diff editors with hidden scrollbars per Monaco ≥0.49 pattern
- Added setupAutoSizing() with content height calculation
- Implemented fitEditorToContent() using getContentHeight() callbacks
- Set automaticLayout: false for manual size control
- Added scrollbar: { vertical: 'hidden', horizontal: 'hidden', handleMouseWheel: false }
- Enabled minimap: false and scrollBeyondLastLine: false
3. CSS Styling (sketch-diff2-view.ts):
- Added file-diff-section with bottom borders for visual separation
- Implemented sticky file headers with proper z-index
- Created status badges (added, modified, deleted, renamed) with color coding
- Added file-count display replacing old file picker interface
- Configured diff-container with overflow: auto for outer scrolling
4. Content Management:
- Parallel loading of all file contents with error handling
- Maintains editability detection per file based on commit range
- Preserves comment and save functionality for individual files
- Updated toggleHideUnchangedRegions to apply to all editors
Technical Details:
- Uses Monaco's getContentHeight() and onDidContentSizeChange() for auto-sizing
- Each diff editor sized to Math.max(originalHeight, modifiedHeight) + 18px padding
- Outer container handles all scrolling while inner editors are sized to content
- File headers show status (Added/Modified/Deleted/Renamed) with appropriate styling
- Sticky positioning keeps file context visible during scrolling
- Maintains all existing features: editing, commenting, expand/collapse toggles
Benefits:
- Natural scrolling workflow similar to GitHub PR reviews
- Eliminates need for dropdown navigation between files
- Better visual context with file headers and status indicators
- Continuous viewing experience for multi-file changes
- Preserves all advanced Monaco features (editing, commenting, etc.)
- Improved performance with parallel content loading
Testing:
- Verified multi-file diff display with various commit ranges
- Tested scrolling behavior between files works smoothly
- Confirmed auto-sizing works correctly for different file sizes
- Validated file headers show correct status and change counts
- Ensured editing and commenting functionality preserved
- Tested expand/collapse toggles apply to all editors
This implementation follows the Monaco ≥0.49 multi-file diff pattern with
disabled inner scrollbars, auto-sizing to content, and outer scroll container,
providing a modern diff experience while maintaining full editor functionality.
