[FR] Diff View to open & focus new tab if current tab pinned

[huyz]

When I open "Diff View" via command palette or shortcut, the behavior is a bit inconsistent.
On a regular tab, the diff view opens in the current tab.
If the tab is pinned, then the diff view opens in the first non-pinned tab it can find (and doesn't focus the view).

It would be nice if when the current tab is pinned, the "Diff View" opened in a brand new tab and changed focus to it.

I'm using the default Obsidian behavior with reusing an existing tab, when the current tab is pinned. So I won't change that for now. But I fixed the focus when using the command instead of the source control view.

Cool, thanks.

I will point out that the default Obsidian behavior is not good either (they do make a lot of UX mistakes). I will file a FR with core Obsidian for that.

I posted a FR for core: https://forum.obsidian.md/t/click-on-an-internal-link-in-a-pinned-note-should-open-a-brand-new-tab/47895

At least with core, I have a workaround: ⌘Click. No such thing with Diff view, unless a special command is added.

You can use ctrl click in the source control view. At the moment, I don't plan to add an extra command for this.
