Yes, this is kind of a mess. Contrary to what the git-diff documentation says, git-diff actually can be used outside a repository $ echo foo >foo && echo bar >bar && git diff foo bar diff --git a/foo b/bar index 257cc56..5716ca5 100644 --- a/foo +++ b/bar @@ -1 +1 @@ -foo +bar and IIRC this is by intention. Nevertheless, git-diff without any arguments outside a repository should probably error out. Regards, Gerrit. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
