DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
Show changes between two ents, an ent and the working tree, an
|
|
|
|
ent and the index file, or the index file and the working tree.
|
|
|
|
The combination of what is compared with what is determined by
|
|
|
|
the number of ents given to the command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* When no <ent> is given, the working tree and the index
|
|
|
|
file is compared, using `git-diff-files`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* When one <ent> is given, the working tree and the named
|
|
|
|
tree is compared, using `git-diff-index`. The option
|
|
|
|
`--cached` can be given to compare the index file and
|
|
|
|
the named tree.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* When two <ent>s are given, these two trees are compared
|
|
|
|
using `git-diff-tree`.
