View All changed files in Branch in PhpStorm

Hi everyone, I found a great PhpStorm Power User Tip today which will enable you easily view files ALL files changed in the current branch you are working on while in PhpStorm.

USECASE:

You are working on a feature/bug branch off of your staging branch, and you want to see all files changes within the feature/bug branch from staging.

1) click on the top folder of your project in project files
2) press control-shift-a for the actions popup
3) type "compare with branch" (if it doesn't show up, checkbox 'include disabled actions'
4) Voila! The Changes tab is now available!
