There is no more need for this tool since the --dir-dirr option was introduced.

-The git-diffall script provides a directory based diff mechanism
-for git.
-
-To determine what diff viewer is used, the script requires either
-the 'diff.tool' or 'merge.tool' configuration option to be set.
-
-This script is compatible with most common forms used to specify a
-range of revisions to diff:
-
-  1. git diffall: shows diff between working tree and staged changes
-  2. git diffall --cached [<commit>]: shows diff between staged
-     changes and HEAD (or other named commit)
-  3. git diffall <commit>: shows diff between working tree and named
-     commit
-  4. git diffall <commit> <commit>: show diff between two named commits
-  5. git diffall <commit>..<commit>: same as above
-  6. git diffall <commit>...<commit>: show the changes on the branch
-     containing and up to the second, starting at a common ancestor
-     of both <commit>
-
-Note: all forms take an optional path limiter [-- <path>*]
-
-The '--extcmd=<command>' option allows the user to specify a custom
-command for viewing diffs.  When given, configured defaults are
-ignored and the script runs $command $LOCAL $REMOTE.  Additionally,
-$BASE is set in the environment.
-
-This script is based on an example provided by Thomas Rast on the
-Git list [1]:

-USAGE='[--cached] [--copy-back] [-x|--extcmd=<command>] <commit>{0,2} [-- <path>*]
-
-    --cached     Compare to the index rather than the working tree.
-
-    --copy-back  Copy files back to the working tree when the diff
-                 tool exits (in case they were modified by the
-                 user).  This option is only valid if the diff
-                 compared with the working tree.
-
-    -x=<command>
-    --extcmd=<command>  Specify a custom command for viewing diffs.
-                 git-diffall ignores the configured defaults and
-                 runs $command $LOCAL $REMOTE when this option is
-                 specified. Additionally, $BASE is set in the
-                 environment.
