[diff editor] option to remove 'diffOverviewRuler'

Feature Request

I’d like to know if it is possible to add an option to be able to remove the diffOverviewRuler when creating Diff Editors.

If not, is there a recommended way to remove the diffOverviewRuler?

<div align='center'> </div>

Yes, totally. I also want to remove the diffBar. Thats how I ended up in your issue.
AFAIK the only way to do that right now is with some CSS hacks. Which isn’t great, but doable. Hopefully someone from the VSCode notices. 😃

In my codebase where we made the CSS hack I left a link to this issue to remind my self to occasionally check on it.

I was also trying to remove this. There is an option for overviewRulerLanes but setting that to 0 doesn’t seem to do the trick.

For our application we’re only using the editor, and not the entire layout, so I was able to kind of hack this with CSS.

I set the diffOverview div to display: none; and then set the width of the entire editor to calc(100% + 30px) (30px being the default width of the ruler)

I’m not sure if that is helpful in your case since you have the rest of the application visible.
