Description

@nilbuild thanks for an awesome tool! I use it every day :)

I would love to have diffity track files changed since my last review. Let's say I have a branch with commit A that changes two files, then i launch diffity and review both, then click "viewed" in the UI on both files to hide their diffs. Then I make a change one of those files. If I open diffity, I'd like the "viewed" state to be toggled off for that file, and a "changed since last review" badge to be attached on the file (basically the same as what GH PR review does).

Would love to contribute this feature if it sounds good to you.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the UI code that stores the viewed state and renders file badges, then trace how changes are detected between launches; done means a previously viewed file is unviewed and marked when it changes, while unchanged files remain hidden.
