Compare changes between two branches in vscode

Let say I am on branch side-branch, and did some changes. I can see the changes in vscode by clicking on the left Source Control button.

If I switch to other branch I have to stash it so that If I switch back and apply I can still see what I changed.

It works for me a lot of times but sometimes I need to commit the changes in order to prevent a long commit (having more changes).

But now I lost the option to compare the change.

I tried using git diff develop while I am on side-branch but It uses built in console to show the diffs.

I tried using below command git config --global diff.tool vscode it does not work. I am using mac.

I would be nice If I could compare the changes like I could when I didn't commmit. Is there any option?

I figured it out. I am using two combined extensions for now to start with.

  1. GitLense
  2. Git Graph
