12'git diff-files' [-q] [-0 | -1 | -2 | -3 | -c | --cc] [<common-diff-options>] [<path>...]

14DESCRIPTION
15-----------
16Compares the files in the working tree and the index. When paths
17are specified, compares only those named paths. Otherwise all
18entries in the index are compared. The output format is the
19same as for 'git diff-index' and 'git diff-tree'.

22-------
23include::diff-options.adoc[]
24
25-1 --base::
26-2 --ours::
27-3 --theirs::
28-0::
29 Diff against the "base" version, "our branch", or "their
30 branch" respectively. With these options, diffs for
31 merged entries are not shown.
32+
33The default is to diff against our branch (-2) and the
34cleanly resolved paths. The option -0 can be given to
35omit diff output for unmerged entries and just show "Unmerged".
36
37-c::
38--cc::
39 This compares stage 2 (our branch), stage 3 (their
40 branch), and the working tree file and outputs a combined
41 diff, similar to the way 'diff-tree' shows a merge
42 commit with these flags.
43
44-q::
45 Remain silent even for nonexistent files
