Compare working copy against specific commit
As a developer, I'd like to see the differences of my working copy to a specific commit node.
I like the compare function when I "ctrl+select" two commit nodes. It shows me all the differences between the selected commits. I use this a lot to compare feature branches against a master branch.
But I miss a similar possibility to compare the actual working copy with uncommited or unstaged changes against a specific commit node. I'd appreciate if you add this e.g. to the context menu of the selected commit node "compare to working copy" or allow "ctrl+select" also for the working copy.
Thanks for considering

Jonathan MergedWith Sourcetree, it is possible to see the difference between the working copy and a commit (select the working copy, press "control" and select another commit). It will be great if GitKraken has this feature !

Lyndon Gingerich MergedI select multiple commits in GitKraken to view their diffs frequently. What is your suggested addition? I don't quite understand.

Zappotek Merged@Lyndon: "working copy" includes local (uncommited) changes. Currently, you've to commit (or stage) your changes before you GitKraken allows you to compare them to another revision.
I'd even extend this suggestion by the following:
Assuming a comparison between working-copy and another revision, it would be GREATLY appreciated to even allow transferring chunks from that revision into your working version, just as the diff for local modifications allows you to do. -
