Clicking on a commit in a pull request opens a commit from a totally different PR!

[Peter Miller]

Steps:

1. Open the pull request
2. On the overview tab, click on one of the commit hashes
3. It opens the files-changed tab but with a completely different set of files that do not belong to this PR

Note:

• Once I am on the files-changed tab, refreshing the browser page (F5) does not fix the situation. The wrong files continue to be shown for the PR.
• The PR title (just below the breadcrumbs) remains unchanged the whole time, regardless of which tab is open
• If I restart from step 1 and do not do steps 2 & 3, but instead if I navigate to the files-changed tab by clicking on the tab element (id="pull-request-tabs-1") then it loads the correct files for the PR and everything works as it should.

go back to step 1 and click the files-changed tab:

Hello @Peter Miller ,

and thanks for reaching out to the Community! 

When you click on a commit in the Pull Request Overview tab, the page will redirect you to the Files changed tab and filter the diff to only that single commit. This is the reason why you see less files changed, because the diff in this case is not considering all the commits in the pull request, but that single commit you have clicked.

To view the diff of all the commits, you can click on the dropdown and select All changes, like in the below example : 

That dropdown enables you to see the different across individual commits, or a range of commits you select. It also has the option to show All changes, which will make the diff considering all the commits that are part of that pull request.

I hope that helps to clarify!

Thank you, @Peter Miller !

ah that makes sense. thanks.

i found the reason i'm seeing a commit from a different PR inside this PR is that the commit is a merge from the master branch into this branch
