Stefan HallerandClaude Opus 4.8 de8b19c247 Preserve the diff scroll position when switching pagers
Cycling pagers re-renders the diff into the main view. Until now that
either lost the scroll position outright — an entry with its own
externalDiffCommand changes the actual git command, so the re-render
reset the view to the top — or kept it only by raw line number, which a
plain pager swap got for free because the git command was unchanged.

Raw line number is the wrong anchor: two pagers can structure the same
diff very differently (side-by-side vs inline), so the same screen line
means something different afterwards. Reuse the identity-based restore
(PreserveDiffPositionOnRerender, already driving the -U context-size
consumer) to re-anchor on the same patch line instead. That both keeps
the position meaningful when the structure changes and covers the
externalDiffCommand case the line-number approach couldn't.
