That sounds great to me, I often wondering, why is „Show history“ deactivated, when I’ve selected a Folder or a Project. Local history for more then only a single file, makes much more sense 😊

I do not like the fact that localHistory is limited to a single file. I would like it to apply to any selection. Git already does this with a Diff feature so I am trying to implement something similar in LocalHistory. I am currently experimenting and trying to see what I can just refuse from elsewhere. I am poking around in Git and Diff modules.

If you're just looking for a UI to show sets of files that were edited, and maybe group diff, that doesn't seem like it would need git. Or you want to somehow make local history contiguous with git history? (My intuition says this would be a rabbit hole not worth going down) My general guess is that the local history module doesn't depend on the git module, so it's classes can't be referenced from there. You might be able to add a dependency, but let's talk through what you're trying to do - you want to share some implementation with it, or you really need local history to interoperate with git? -Tim
