# ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

**This extension is no longer needed**

Since [June 2022](https://github.blog/changelog/2022-06-06-view-commit-history-across-file-renames-and-moves/) GitHub have (finally!) implemented this feature themselves. This extension is no longer required.

# ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

Follow for Github


This extension currently:

- adds a _File moved_ line and _Follow_ button to Commit histories cut short by file movement and;

- changes the _View_ button into _Left_ and _Right_ buttons on diffs that are file movements.

Commit History


Clicking the _Follow_ button navigates to the commit history prior to the file rename.

Diffs


Clicking the _Left_ button will move you to the full file as it existed in its previous location in the parent commit. Clicking the _Right_ button does what the old _View_ button did, and moves you to the full file on the current commit.

Please let me know if you have any issues [here](https://github.com/staff0rd/github-follow-extension/issues/new).
