You can filter files in a pull request by file extension type, such as .html or .js, lack of an extension, code ownership, or dotfiles. You can also use the file tree to filter by file path, navigate between files, or see a high level view of the changed files.
Using the file filter dropdown
Tip
To simplify your pull request diff view, you can also temporarily hide deleted files or files you have already viewed in the pull request diff from the file filter drop-down menu.
