Allow comparing 2 branches. Base branch can be changed but the current branch is not changable #101

Usecase:

I work on branch-a
The base branch is branch-b (develop, master...)
There is another branch (like a branch of a colleague) branch-c

I want to checkout to branch-a to do my work but at the same time, using this extension, I want to see the diff tree between branch-c and branch-b.

Is this possible? If not, can you please add this?

I'm afraid that's out of scope for this extension. Please use something like GitLens instead.
