Code review filter changed files based on type of change #3369

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
SOME BACKGROUND:

For the most part, we greatly encourage small logically related commits in our 
Gerrit instance.  Sometimes during a refactor large changesets are unavoidable. 
 Recently a member of our team modified nearly 5k files (deleted mostly, with 
less than a dozen files with modifications).  We hilariously encountered this 
bug: https://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=3256

FEATURE REQUEST:

For large commits, it would be nice to be able filter the file list for review 
by what type of modify it is or path.  e.g.

* Only show deleted files (modify type D).  Inclusion filter.
* Only show modified files (modify type M).  Inclusion filter.
* Only show files underneath a specific path.  Inclusion filter.
* Omit a specific path from the view.  Exclusion filter.

It would also be nice to see the number of files changed at the bottom of the 
summary next to the total lines deleted or added.

Please tell me your thoughts.
