So I hope you would find this useful feature and easy enough to implement.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have added a patch for that, hopefully might be useful in some way:&lt;br /&gt;
 - it works across folders (as if the tree is "flattened" and move from file to file)&lt;br /&gt;
 - it skips hidden files (so if one hides identical files, then they will not be "visited")&lt;br /&gt;
 - I know I have a problem with disabling the commands (to figure out if a file is the last one might require navigating the whole tree). So it does the disabling after the first failure to move. If you have a better way, great, if not, I would be happy with things "as is"&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The patch contains&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt; prev_next_file.patch, a git patch (created using this guidelines: &lt;a href="http://ariejan.net/2009/10/26/how-to-create-and-apply-a-patch-with-git/" rel="nofollow"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://ariejan.net/2009/10/26/how-to-create-and-apply-a-patch-with-git/" rel="nofollow"&gt;http://ariejan.net/2009/10/26/how-to-create-and-apply-a-patch-with-git/&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt; two folders (kdiff_code_org and kdiff_code_new) with the files changed, before and after the modification, so that you can kdiff them, if you prefer it to the git patch&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;
Mihai&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</summary></entry></feed>
