Showing diff preview on right side in Intellij 2020
Answered
I just upgraded to Intellij 2020 and noticed the git log window, which I use a lot, now shows diff previews at the bottom rather than on the right side. This doesn't work well for screens that have more horizontal space than vertical. Is there a way to get the old layout back, where I could diff files on the right side of the log window?

May you show the screenshot of the diff window you are talking about? By default diff opens in a new modal window:

The UI option to change diff location will be available in 2020.2, for a workaround in 2020.1 see https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-232551#focus=streamItem-27-4069797.0-0
That works - thank you!
