What is Linear Diffs?

Linear Diffs is a pull request review feature that integrates code review directly into Linear's project management platform. When a pull request is linked to a Linear issue, team members can view and discuss code diffs without leaving Linear. This feature supports GitHub and GitLab repositories, enabling teams to keep their entire development workflow, from planning through code review, in a single unified location.
