View summary of staged changes before commit

[ratorx]

A common operation for me in the CLI is to run a git diff --staged to get a concise summary of the entire set of staged changes before I commit. Is there an equivalent view in lazygit?

Basically, I want to diff view that shows up when browsing commits on the main screen, but for staged changes.

I've tried:

• Filtering files by "staged" - this is close, but is not concise (need to browse through all files) and will also include unstaged changes in a staged file
• Creating a commit first, checking the diff, then amending if necessary - this works, but is a pain to reason about if I need to remove e.g. specific lines from a file from the commit, and it also involves naming etc the commit first. I'd like something to show the diff before I make the commit.

More of a feature request, but I'd love if there was a "root" view in the files browser that would summarise all the changes in the entire repository, like what selecting a directory does.
