Pull Request Details

Double-click a pull request in the list to open its details panel.

Changes

By default, the Changes tab shows all changes in the pull request. Use the changes filter dropdown to narrow the diff:

FilterDescription
Unreviewed changesChanges since your last reviewed commit. Shown automatically when applicable.
Changes since commitAll changes from a specific commit onward.
Single commitChanges introduced by a single commit.
Commit rangeChanges between two selected commits.

Right-click files in the tree to mark them as reviewed — the reviewed state is stored locally and persists across sessions. Enable Mark Files as Reviewed Automatically to mark each file as you open it, and Show Reviewed File Count to track your progress. The menu also offers Jump to Source and Show/Hide Diff Preview in Tool Window.

Build Status

For open pull requests, the Info tab shows the build status reported for the source branch's latest commit. Click it to list the individual builds and open one in Bitbucket. The same status appears next to pull requests in the Bitbucket Pull Requests tool window list.

Code Insights

When a CI tool, linter, or scanner publishes Code Insights to Bitbucket, the plugin surfaces those reports and their findings in the pull request. Available on both Cloud and Data Center.

Reports

The Info tab lists the reports attached to the pull request under a collapsible Reports section. Click a report to open its findings, grouped by file, and a finding to jump to the corresponding line in the diff — or the icon to open it in Bitbucket.

Annotations in the diff

Findings anchored to a line appear as gutter icons on the new side of the diff, marked by severity. Click one to open the finding in Bitbucket.

Annotations are shown only when the diff's new side is the pull request's source-branch head — the commit the findings were reported against. To hide or show them, right-click the diff gutter and toggle Show Code Insight Annotations, or clear Show Code Insight annotations in diff in Settings | Bitbucket Integration Pro.

Actions

The details panel toolbar offers Approve, Open in Browser, and Copy Link, plus the following:

Customizing the Layout

Drag a tab to the edge of the panel to split it into a separate column — this lets you view, for example, Changes and Comments side by side. Up to three columns are supported in horizontal layout and two in vertical. The layout is saved automatically and persists across IDE restarts.
