Filter merge changes by type/file extension

We are working on our current project as a pretty big team right now and we are using the version control system of playcanvas quite extensively. We try to properly do merge/pull requests internally, but the current display of all the changes is not very friendly for this kind of workflow. Whenever we try to merge 2 branches, we get a huge list of changes, when all we would like to see are the script files for example.

Here on the left side I would like to only see all files with the *.js extension. It would be nice to be able to filter the list, maybe by it’s file extensions, maybe by a searchfield with pattern matching of asset names. This would make our life a lot easier.

I guess it's pretty easy to create this state, but just in case: Project

1. switch to branch "testing_merge"
2. merge "master" into "testing_merge"
3. see the list

Start in the editor's merge view by switching to "testing_merge" and merging "master" as described in the issue, then inspect how the current change list is assembled. Done means the list can be narrowed to a file extension such as *.js and supports the requested asset-name pattern filtering.
