Gerrit doesn't show links to diff pictures a consistent way
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #36852 +++

When a git commit contains changes to a picture file, the Gerrit UI interface prints:

  • two links to see the old and the now pictures in the Side-by-side column
  • a link to see both logos side by side in the unified column

This isn't intuitive nor ergonomic and could mislead a reviewer.

This has changed in the meantime.
On https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/9591 I only get "Binary files differ" now when trying to view the diff.

Wondering which behavior is requested in this bug report.
Dereckson, could you clarify?

This is for cleaning up the links to diffs. Which seems to be fixed (although the bug was never closed upstream).

The other bug (about image diffs not showing) is bug 47519 (which is now fixed too).

This seems much better these days.
