Ugh I hear you. I have been following this issue for nearly a year: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/39056

I cannot believe its not fixed it. They made the MR file view completely useless for us. It was a new "feature" that actually made things worse.

James (Product Manager at GitLab) here. I've just picked up merge requests and have seen lots of feedback across multiple issues related to navigating between diffs/files when reviewing a merge request, and I want to make it better too.

There have been a few different solutions proposed including adding a file tree to the merge request interface, so you can quickly see a full list of the files and how they relate to each other. There is a design discovery issue for adding a file tree to the merge request interface https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/49189 scheduled for the next release to work out the UX in more detail.

Would a file tree make reviewing a merge request easier for you? Thanks for the feedback, and would love to hear more here, or on the issue.

Also sad to see how reports about regressions appear to turn into "feature requests", that then are nice to have instead of important.
