What's the URL of the page this enhancement relates to, if any?
The diff page
Describe the enhancement and the motivation for it.
When there are a lot of files in the diff, it is usually easier to review
if some related files are clustered together. For example, two java classes
that reference each other a lot should be one after the other in the diff
list. Or, you might want to put all test-related files in the end, so that
the code doesn't get cluttered with tests. Hence, it would be great if the
review submitter can order the diff files and all the reviewers see the
files in that particular order.
Taking it further, maybe it is good to group the files into categories, so
that the file list doesn't appear unnecessarily big. For example, I might
have source code changes in 6 files, changes in 6 corresponding test files,
and each test might need 2-3 json files for input data, which will create
18 json files (This has happened). So the crux of the code change (the 6
source files) is lost between the test and test data, and the reviewer
would get an impression that it is too much code, and hence the review gets
delayed.
