Description
Context: Right now, the plugin generates pretty diffs for every symbol. Repo maintainers are only interested in changes; there's no value in GIT generating pretty diffs for 500+ unchanged symbols.
Request: include a preference to only generate pretty diffs on changed symbols

Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by locating the plugin code that generates pretty diffs and the logic that identifies new or updated symbols; then determine how preferences are defined and applied. Done means a preference controls generation so unchanged symbols are skipped while new and updated symbols still receive pretty diffs.
