      (It's a regression from 1.8.1) If you are in the log view you can only see the internal diff, there seems to be no way of opening an external diff tool directly. It's possible to bounce to the commit history view, pick the correct file then open the external diff. This is pretty annoying after a bit and it's a regression from v1.8.1

            @Brian, I think you misunderstood what we meant by Log window. What we refer to as "Log Window" is the window you get once you right click on a file in File Status. I've added screenshots to highlight the difference between the Windows and Mac version of the Log Window

            - Windows
            - Mac

            As you can see, the Windows version of the Log window has 2 more options in the dropdown menu, namely the External Diff and Blame Selected

            External Diff is a supported feature in the File Status and Log views, screenshots attached.

            This is a feature that is still available in the Windows version of the app. I don't see a reason why this was removed in the Mac version

            I can confirm that this feature was present in v1.8.1 and is not in 2.0.5.2. Is there any chance this could be reinstated? (I've edited the bug to confirm that it's a regression).
