7 git-diff-files - Compares files in the working tree and the cache
12 'git-diff-files' [-p] [-q] [-r] [-z] [<pattern>...]
16 Compares the files in the working tree and the cache. When paths
17 are specified, compares only those named paths. Otherwise all
18 entries in the cache are compared. The output format is the
19 same as "git-diff-cache" and "git-diff-tree".
24 generate patch (see section on generating patches).
27 Remain silent even on nonexisting files
30 This flag does not mean anything. It is there only to match
31 git-diff-tree. Unlike git-diff-tree, git-diff-files always looks
32 at all the subdirectories.
