Git Integration: Preview diff before commit

Please allow users to view the diff of workspace items (e.g. notebooks, dataflows, pipelines, semantic models, reports) before committing changes via Fabric Git integration.

 

Currently, Fabric Git integration shows that an item has been modified, but provides no built-in way to review what was changed - meaning users sometimes commit without knowing what’s actually in the change set.

 

Use case:

I’ve made changes to items in my workspace, but then I got another urgent task before I could commit my work to Git, and after spending time and energy on that urgent task - and some other tasks in-between - I now lost track of what changed exactly in the workspace. As there’s no preview in the UI, I need to commit without a descriptive commit message, because I don't remember exactly what I changed.

Really need better GIT integration at this level. Unable to determine easily what changes have taken place and whether it should be committed or ignored and rolled back. Also the Commit comment box is tiny, consider making that larger. Just overall needs more polishing and work to bring a true sense of GIT versioning both operationally and visually.
