Click some files cannot be opened from pending changes

[art-in]

• VSCode Version: 1.17.1
• OS Version: window 7

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Upload some files to git
2. Change them and try to see those changes from Source Control - pending changes tab

Some files cannot be opened, just ignored to open with left click or right click Open Changes.

• can't say exactly what blocks them from opening. see no correlation in extension/previous contents/change/etc. Some files just cannot be opened. Have feeling it happens with 'index.js' files only, but not sure. [update: nope, experiencing same issue with other '.js' files too]

• issue gets fixed after vs code reload.

This is really unpleasant. Any known workarounds?

[art-in]

@rnemec I'm restarting vs code as workaround

Good old command-line resurrected: git difftool -d 😉

This seems very hard for me to reproduce. It's very possible that 9e9f809 fixed it. But not sure...

I'l close it for now. Please try the latest Insiders release or the upcoming November stable release (available next week) and let me know if you still see the issue.

still reproducible in v1.18.1
still cannot narrow repro, happens randomly 😢

@joaomoreno - I can also confirm in 1.18.1. Please, consider re-opening this one. If there is anything we can do to help you collect some more info, let us know. Since it is not always reproducible, it must be something that we can have configured/turned on for longer time without making the env unusable.

@artin-phares @rnemec This is a duplicate of #35724 (comment) . It's fixed in Insiders.

Thank you, @joaomoreno !
