To be clear, this was only a bug when updating while the view was visible, it would work if you updated outside of this being presented. Looks like UnifiedDiffView doesn't have the same checks so it already dynamically changes. |
I tried changing the setting without the diff view being visible, but it still only changed the line number sizing. However, not important now. |

The Text Size setting in the preference pane currently only changes the size of the line numbers in the diff viewer, which is not that useful. Presumably it is supposed to also change the text size in the diff content.
This PR makes that change. The Text Size setting will now correctly change the size of the text in the diff content, not just the line numbers.
This addresses #470
