No, it never did.
The Unified Diff option is available since 21.1 preview 1.
Please use SmartGit 20.2 build 16142+ (Help | Check for Latest Build). The old code could not manage the UTF-8 BOM, but the new code should be able to.
What should be the result of having pinned them?
A workaround for the meantime could be to use 2 instances of SmartGit (using the portable bundle), one for the Windows repositories, one for the WSL repositories.

SmartGit 21.1 #17062 should offer keyboard support for these actions. You can find them as "Apply [Innerline Change|Line] to Right/Left" in the keyboard settings. Applying the whole block is named "Take Left/Right" (from the Compare).
