If there’s a way to steer which repo the new review capability reviews when using “Review Diff wtih main branch”, I haven’t been able to figure it out. It seems to always choose the same repo.
Steps to Reproduce
Have a multi-root workspace. Have feature branches checked out in more than one root folder/repo. Use “Review Diff with main branch”. It’ll only review one of them without a way to tell it which.
Expected Behavior
I dunno, I guess it needs to ask which root to use?
Operating System

Hey, thanks for the report. You’ve basically found a limitation of the “Review Diff with main branch” feature in multi-root workspaces.
It looks like this is related to a broader issue where several git-related features (like worktrees and multi-agent) don’t work correctly with multi-root workspaces that have multiple repositories.
A quick workaround is to open each repository as a separate workspace when you need to review diffs for that specific repo.
I’ll pass this to the team so they can add repository selection support for multi-root workspaces. Could you share:
Which repository or folder it’s currently defaulting to (first alphabetically, primary root folder, or something else)?
A screenshot of your workspace folder structure, if possible?
