git-diff-files(1)
=================
v0.1, May 2005
NAME
----
git-diff-files - Compares files in the working tree and the cache
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-diff-files' [-p] [-q] [-r] [-z] [-R] [-B] [-M] [-C] [--find-copies-harder] [-O<orderfile>] [-S<string>] [--pickaxe-all] [<path>...]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Compares the files in the working tree and the cache. When paths
are specified, compares only those named paths. Otherwise all
entries in the cache are compared. The output format is the
same as "git-diff-cache" and "git-diff-tree".
OPTIONS
-------
-p::
generate patch (see section on generating patches).
-q::
Remain silent even on nonexisting files
-R::
Swap two inputs; that is, show differences from on-disk files
to cache contents.
-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::
This flag does not mean anything. It is there only to match
git-diff-tree. Unlike git-diff-tree, git-diff-files always looks
at all the subdirectories.
Output format
-------------
include::diff-format.txt[]
