claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Bug] [Desktop UI] Diff viewer not refreshing on initial open, requires re-open to display changes [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

The Diff viewer in the Desktop UI of Claude code may need a manual refresh or re-open to display new commits.

Guidance

• Verify that the issue persists across different repositories and commit types to isolate the problem.
• Check if the Diff viewer is configured to auto-refresh or if there's a setting to enable live updates.
• Try closing and re-opening the Diff viewer or the entire application to see if it consistently resolves the issue.
• If the problem is specific to the Apple Terminal or darwin platform, consider testing on a different environment to identify potential platform-specific bugs.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Re-open the Diff viewer or the application after making new commits, as this seems to temporarily resolve the issue, allowing users to view the latest changes.
