Similar to #43026 i would like to have a setting to ignore all line breaks

New Feature

  • In settings it's possible to set "diffEditor.ignoreLineBreak": true

Current status

  • to my knowledge there's no option to ignore all line breaks in the diffEditor,

Example and benefit

The screenshot below compares two versions of a file. Currently it is not easy to see at a glance if the code was changed or only line breaks were added.
With the new feature this code lines would not be highlighted and therefore the reviewer could see at first glance that nothing must be reviewed here.
