+1. I hate having to redundantly accept changes in this review mode after I’ve already accepted them in the version control review and pushed the changes. I want to disable this redundant diff view but it isn’t possible.

+1 I want to disable this feature too… It’s annoying

Totally agree with the op and others. This is redundant and distracting if you’re already using source control. If you’re not, well, good luck.
