All of the dynamic data to fill in the suggestion placeholder commit message is available only on the Changes tab

History

In !48597 (merged), we added the custom commit message.

In !50666 (merged), we added all of the necessary additional data to diffs_metadata.json.

In !52851 (merged), we will hydrate the default message shown in the UI with the data we know - which should be completely filled in.

Problem

Unfortunately, diff suggestions show outside the Changes tab - like on the Overview tab.
When they show in that context, they:

  • Don't have access to a full Diff File
  • Don't have access to diffs_metadata.json
    • Even if we made it so they did, the diffs app isn't necessarily loaded when the Overview tab is, so it may not ever be available.
