As a developer, I want to preview the PR that I'm creating, so that I can catch any obvious PR issues before bothering my colleagues

[Alan Haverty]

I always use bitbucket’s PR preview before clicking create, and often catch obvious issues with the PR that I fix up before bothering the team with slack notifications etc.

In the vscode extension, creating a PR, there is no overall code preview of all of the commits in the PR.

Clicking “create in Bitbucket” is a workaround, but makes the creation process in vscode pointless if I have to do that every time.

Just to be clear, I’m talking about the diff functionality that exists on the web version:

@alan_haverty Can you see if the branch compare features in https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=eamodio.gitlens or https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=donjayamanne.githistory would help for your workflow?

I actually use both, but I think having it in the PR creator view would be better. Or even a link to open a new tab with the diff would be handy too.

Version 2.1.0 of the extension which includes this feature. Please try it out.
