Unable to choose "Show Diff" option in Android Studio Chipmunk

3.1k views Asked by At

I am using Android Studio Chipmunk | 2021.2.1 build and facing an unusual error with choosing option "Show Diff" from Git section at bottom.

How to reproduce :

  1. Open Android Studio
  2. Find Git option at the bottom
  3. Now choose any branch from the console
  4. Select any commit
  5. Try opening the changed file(by using double-click or right click and choose "Show Diff") to see the difference made in that commit

Error : The file doesn't open.

This issue was not there before updating Android Studio Chipmunk .I can't say if it is related to Android Studio or most probably something on my end is broken, but if you know anything about it, let me know!

Working Alternative : I am able to open it if I choose "Show Diff in a New Tab" by right clicking on the file.

Edit 1: This is the log error I am getting

You can (as workaround) select two any commits in the tree, right-click and "Compare versions". The changes window will opened. Then you will be able open any file-diff by double-click or Ctrl+D.
