Stefan HallerandClaude Opus 5 47c1b94224 Select a range of diff lines by dragging
Selecting a range with the mouse is the obvious gesture once clicking
selects a line, and it's the only way to get a range without knowing the
keybindings.

The range has to be anchored where the mouse went down, which the view
can't tell us: a click in hunk mode selects a whole block, leaving the
view's own range anchor at the block's far end, so a drag from there would
grow the selection from the wrong end. So the clicked line is remembered
when the click happens, and the drag anchors there.

A drag that reaches the edge of the view keeps scrolling, using the same
autoscroller the staging view does — mouse capture means the pointer can be
dragged past the edge, and there is more diff down there than fits on
screen. Unlike the staging view, whose content is a string that is always
there in full, this diff loads lazily, so scrolling down has to keep
reading it in or the autoscroll would stop at the loaded edge.
