Add word-diff option to commits view
Problem to solve
When working with markdown (or any type of prose/text in general), the "classic" git-diff (intended for code) is of limited use.
Proposal
With the logic changes introduced in #16950 (closed) and after Gitaly merges support for word-diff (gitaly!3086 (merged)), we should add a user control to enable word-diff mode.
Commenting while on word-diff mode
MVC will not contain the ability to comment while on word-diff mode. This will be addressed in #330179
Prerequisites
- Word-diff parser - !55105 (merged)
- Word-diff support on gitaly side - #324805 (closed)
Further info
- Word diff parser !55105 (merged)
- Gitlab::Diff::Highlight refactor #323763 (closed)
- Word-diff Gitaly support gitaly!3086 (merged)
