fix(web): prevent duplicate diff file ids

[Frexxty]

Opening a diff with repeated records for the same file could crash with:

Error: CodeView.addItem: duplicate id "<file>\0<file>"

The diff panel derived each CodeView item ID only from the file's previous and current paths, so repeated records received identical IDs.

Keep the existing path-based ID for the first record and append an occurrence number only when that identity repeats. This preserves every diff record and leaves IDs and behavior unchanged for normal patches.

Adds a regression test covering repeated records for the same file.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes

  • Improved handling of repeated file entries in diffs so each occurrence receives a distinct identity.
  • Ensured duplicate file changes render separately and reliably.
  • Improved diff header interactions so selecting a repeated file opens the correct file content.

• Tests

  • Added coverage verifying that repeated file diffs are preserved, rendered separately, and assigned unique identities.

🟡 Medium components/DiffPanel.tsx:423

Duplicate-path records cannot be independently collapsed or selected: clicking the non-title area of the second header resolves its filePath with codeViewFiles.find(...) and toggles the first matching record, while the file tree has the same path-only ambiguity. Pass the stable fileKey through header and file-tree interactions instead of identifying records by displayed path.

Duplicate-path records cannot be independently collapsed or selected: clicking the non-title area of the second header resolves its `filePath` with `codeViewFiles.find(...)` and toggles the first matching record, while the file tree has the same path-only ambiguity. Pass the stable `fileKey` through header and file-tree interactions instead of identifying records by displayed path.

[Frexxty]

The header interaction now carries and uses the occurrence-aware fileKey, so repeated records collapse independently. The file tree intentionally keys entries by path and deduplicates identical paths through its tree model; it cannot expose two independently selectable rows for the same displayed path. Changing that would require inventing a new visible tree identity and would be outside this crash fix.

Approvability

Verdict: Would Approve

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This is a focused, backward-compatible bug fix that assigns unique keys to repeated diff records and includes a targeted regression test, without changing product defaults or sensitive infrastructure. An unresolved Medium finding still flags path-based selection and collapse ambiguity in some duplicate-file interactions.

Not approved because:

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The diff renderer now creates unique keys for repeated file diffs. DiffPanel computes these keys in bulk and passes them through diff headers for direct collapse handling. Tests verify duplicate files remain distinct.

Changes

Diff identity handling

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Occurrence-aware identity keys apps/web/src/lib/diffRendering.ts, apps/web/src/lib/diffRendering.test.ts	Adds buildFileDiffIdentityKeys with occurrence suffixes for repeated identities. Tests verify duplicate file diffs produce distinct keys.
Diff panel key integration apps/web/src/components/DiffPanel.tsx, apps/web/src/components/diffs/AnnotatableCodeView.tsx	Computes file identity keys in bulk, passes each key to the header suffix renderer, and reads the key from the header attribute for collapse handling.

962-965: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Use fileKey for header collapse lookup.

When two records have the same filePath, Array.find returns the first record. Clicking the header area of a later duplicate then collapses or expands the first record. Pass the occurrence-aware fileKey through the header event path and use it for this lookup.
