codex - 💡(How to fix) Fix Codex Diff fail to pin down the exact lines that are changed [1 participants]

TL;DR

The issue with the Codex Diff displaying unchanged lines as modified may be resolved by adjusting the diff generation algorithm or configuration to ignore identical lines.

Guidance

• Review the Codex Diff generation logic to ensure it correctly identifies and filters out unchanged lines.
• Verify that the diff view is properly configured to display only modified lines, and check for any settings or options that may be causing the issue.
• Test the Codex Diff with a minimal example to isolate the problem and determine if it's related to specific file types, sizes, or editing operations.
• Consider reporting the issue to the IDE extension developers or seeking assistance from their support team, as it may be a bug or limitation in the current version.

Recommendation
