Description

Seen in v1.3.0 for Windows:

  1. Have multiple unstaged files with changes
  2. Select some (but not all of them) and stage them
  3. Commit them
  4. Push
  5. Note that you are now in a state where clicking on any unstaged file or folder does not show you any diffs
  6. Select "Uncomitted changes"
  7. Note that now selecting unstaged files displays diffs as expected

As a user, I would prefer that after a push, either the "uncomitted changes" is automatically selected, or even if it is not selected, clicking on unstaged files still displays the diffs as usual.

Research direction

Reproduce the Windows workflow in the issue: stage and commit only some changed files, push, then click an unstaged file before and after selecting "Uncommitted changes." Trace the post-push selection and diff-display state; done means unstaged files show their diffs immediately after pushing, without requiring that selection.
