Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using "git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.) This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command, program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are made to use the dashless form. The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched versions are identical. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@uchicago.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

NAME

|
----
|
|
git-diff-files - Compares files in the working tree and the index
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git diff-files' [-q] [-0|-1|-2|-3|-c|--cc] [<common diff options>] [<path>...]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Compares the files in the working tree and the index. When paths
|
|
are specified, compares only those named paths. Otherwise all
|
|
entries in the index are compared. The output format is the
|
|
same as "git-diff-index" and "git-diff-tree".
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
include::diff-options.txt[]
|
|
|
|
-1 -2 -3 or --base --ours --theirs, and -0::
|
|
Diff against the "base" version, "our branch" or "their
|
|
branch" respectively. With these options, diffs for
|
|
merged entries are not shown.
|
|
+
|
|
The default is to diff against our branch (-2) and the
|
|
cleanly resolved paths. The option -0 can be given to
|
|
omit diff output for unmerged entries and just show "Unmerged".
|
|
|
|
-c::
|
|
--cc::
|
|
This compares stage 2 (our branch), stage 3 (their
|
|
branch) and the working tree file and outputs a combined
|
|
diff, similar to the way 'diff-tree' shows a merge
|
|
commit with these flags.
|
|
|
|
-q::
|
|
Remain silent even on nonexistent files
