+
+NAME
+----
+git-diff-stages - Compares content and mode of blobs between stages in an unmerged index file.
+
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'git-diff-stages' [-p] [-r] [-z] [-R] [-B] [-M] [-C] [--find-copies-harder] [-O<orderfile>] [-S<string>] [--pickaxe-all] <stage1> <stage2> [<path>...]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Compares the content and mode of the blobs in two stages in an
+unmerged index file.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+<stage1>,<stage2>::
+ The stage number to be compared.
+
+-p::
+ Generate patch (see section on generating patches)
+
+-r::
+ This flag does not mean anything. It is there only to match
+ "git-diff-tree". Unlike "git-diff-tree", "git-diff-stages"
+ always looks at all the subdirectories.
+
+-z::
+ \0 line termination on output
+
+-B::
+ Break complete rewrite changes into pairs of delete and create.
+
+-M::
+ Detect renames.
+
+-C::
+ Detect copies as well as renames.
+
+--find-copies-harder::
+ By default, -C option finds copies only if the original
+ file of the copy was modified in the same changeset for
+ performance reasons. This flag makes the command
+ inspect unmodified files as candidates for the source of
+ copy. This is a very expensive operation for large
+ projects, so use it with caution.
+
+-S<string>::
+ Look for differences that contains the change in <string>.
+
+--pickaxe-all::
+ When -S finds a change, show all the changes in that
+ changeset, not just the files that contains the change
+ in <string>.
+
+-O<orderfile>::
+ Output the patch in the order specified in the
+ <orderfile>, which has one shell glob pattern per line.
+
+-R::
+ Swap two inputs; that is, show differences from <stage2> to
+ <stage1>.
