b5af910727 New "diff-cache" implementation.
This one is about a million times simpler, and much more likely to be
correct too.

Instead of trying to match up a tree object against the index, we just
read in the tree object side-by-side into the index, and just walk the
resulting index file. This was what all the read-tree cleanups were
all getting to.

c5bac17ad2 [PATCH] Usage-string fixes.
Usage string fixes to make maintenance easier (only one instance
of a string to update not multiple copies).  I've spotted and
corrected inconsistent usage text in diff-tree while doing this.

Also diff-cache and read-tree usage text have been corrected to
match their up-to-date features.  Earlier, neither "--cached"
form of diff-cache nor "-m single-merge" form of read-tree were
described.

38357e6703 [PATCH] Teach diff-cache about commit objects
Updates diff-cache.c to use read_tree_with_tree_or_commit_sha1()
function.  The end-user visible result is the same --- the command
takes either tree or commit ID.

e74f8f6aa7 Add "diff-cache" helper program to compare a tree (or commit) with
the current cache state and/or working directory.

Very useful to see what has changed since the last commit, either in
the index file or in the whole working directory.

Also very possibly very buggy. Matching the two up is not entirely
trivial.
