GitHub File Diff Firefox

GitHub File Diff

View diffs of files and directories on GitHub.

Features & Capabilities

To use this extension, go to a file or directory in GitHub and click the History button. Then, click on any commit. The extension will override the click to show the diffs of only the relevant files instead of GitHub's default behavior of showing the entire commit's diff. This is especially helpful when a commit is very large and GitHub only shows a partial diff or none at all. To get the regular view, simply refresh the page.

Is GitHub File Diff Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

GitHub File Diff requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
