6 git-diff-files - Compares files in the working tree and the index
11 'git diff-files' [-q] [-0|-1|-2|-3|-c|--cc] [<common diff options>] [<path>...]
15 Compares the files in the working tree and the index. When paths
16 are specified, compares only those named paths. Otherwise all
17 entries in the index are compared. The output format is the
18 same as for 'git diff-index' and 'git diff-tree'.

28 Diff against the "base" version, "our branch" or "their
29 branch" respectively. With these options, diffs for
30 merged entries are not shown.
32 The default is to diff against our branch (-2) and the
33 cleanly resolved paths. The option -0 can be given to
34 omit diff output for unmerged entries and just show "Unmerged".
38 This compares stage 2 (our branch), stage 3 (their
39 branch) and the working tree file and outputs a combined
40 diff, similar to the way 'diff-tree' shows a merge
41 commit with these flags.
44 Remain silent even on nonexistent files
