Description
Before submitting your bug report
- I believe this is a bug. I'll try to join the Continue Discord for questions
- I'm not able to find an open issue that reports the same bug
- I've seen the troubleshooting guide on the Continue Docs
Relevant environment info
- OS: Linux
- Continue version: 1.0.2
- IDE version: VSCode 1.97.2
Description
When I ask the model to give me diff-formatted changes instead of producing entire files, Continue seems to apply them correctly. However, the "apply/reject" controls nor the bulk accept/reject all changes buttons don't appear on the Apply bar and in some cases applying the changes in the code editor bugs out (for example, you click on "Accept" but the change doesn't get accepted).
To reproduce
Write in a system message that the model should present differences in code to apply as diffs instead of entire files. Try to apply any bigger change (that involves more than one location).
Log output
Sometimes, I get the "cannot apply on closed editor" bug even though the editor is still open.
