 - **Last commit** is selected by default. The panes compare the latest commit with its parent, using committed contents on both sides.
 - Open the commit picker to browse earlier commits. Search by commit message or a short/full hash; use **Load more commits** to browse further back. Message searches cover the current HEAD’s history, including commit bodies. A hash can also locate another commit available in the repository.

 ## Comparing text
 
-- Use **File → Open Original… / Open Changed…**, the toolbar’s folder menu, or the **…** menu in each pane header to open files. You can also drop one file onto each text pane or header. Dropping onto a pane loads that side, including before a comparison starts and in the blank space below short files.
+- Drop one file onto each text pane or header. Dropping onto a pane loads that side, including before a comparison starts and in the blank space below short files.
 - Use the **Edit** menu or a pane’s **…** menu to **Paste** text into either side or **Edit** a snippet. An explicitly empty input can be compared too.
 - **Copy Text** in each pane’s **…** menu (or the **Edit** menu) copies the complete source text, without line numbers or display formatting. Repository headers have a copy icon.
 - Drag to select any range of text within either diff pane, across lines and wrapped rows. Shift-click and keyboard selection work too; **⌘A** selects that side and **⌘C** copies the selection. Copied selections preserve source tabs and line endings, without line numbers, change markers, or alignment gaps.
