Summary

A significant obstacle to code review is often the time it takes, but a new approach aims to streamline this by allowing users to easily understand code changes. This method enables navigation to altered methods and functions directly from a pull request file finder, supporting languages such as Go, JavaScript, Ruby, Python, and TypeScript. By searching the file finder for specific methods or functions, users receive a timeline-style view of results, enabling them to focus on the most impactful elements of a pull request. This enhancement is designed to improve the efficiency of the review process, and users are encouraged to provide feedback or suggest additional search functionalities through a help form.
