gh pr diff
gh pr diff [<number> | <url> | <branch>] [flags]
View changes in a pull request.
Without an argument, the pull request that belongs to the current branch is selected.
With --web flag, open the pull request diff in a web browser instead.
Use --exclude to filter out files matching a glob pattern. The pattern
uses forward slashes as path separators on all platforms. You can repeat
the flag to exclude multiple patterns.
By default, terminal escape sequences in the diff are neutralized, since
they could manipulate your terminal. Pass --allow-escape-sequences to
print the diff verbatim, for example when piping a patch to another program.
Options
-
--allow-escape-sequences - Allow printing terminal escape sequences
-
--color <string> (default "auto") - Use color in diff output: {always|never|auto}
-e,--exclude <patterns>- Exclude files matching glob patterns from the diff
-
--name-only - Display only names of changed files
-
--patch - Display diff in patch format
-w,--web- Open the pull request diff in the browser
Options inherited from parent commands
-R,--repo <[HOST/]OWNER/REPO>- Select another repository using the [HOST/]OWNER/REPO format
