Selecting an already opened file in the Pull Request pane resets the scroll position #8206
Description
Type: Bug
Repro steps:
- Checkout a pull request branch
- Select a file in the files list in the Active Pull Request pane
- Scroll down a ways into the file. Double click on the tab bar to keep the file open
- Select a different file in the files list.
- Select the original file again in the files list.
Expected behavior: The (Pull Request) tab which I had open already for this file is shown at the scroll position I previously left it at.
Actual behavior: The scroll position is reset every time I navigate to it using the Pull Request files list, requiring me to dig back through to find where I was.
