Refresh button when looking at the diff view of a file

17 votes

When a file is selected and its diff view is shown, the diffs will not update automatically when a new change is made. At the moment it is needed to select another file and reselect the first file.
Two solutions:
- auto refresh
- refresh button (and/or F5)
Thank you !

Sometimes I fetch using Git from a command line. I can't figure out how to get Gitkraken to realize the repo has changed and to update accordingly. Auto or manual (F5) refresh would be really helpful.

Check/confirm the ownership and permissions on your repo's .git directory.
Gitkraken silently fails if cannot write to .git/index.lock
