Hello all,

This is perhaps going to seem like a very CVS/SVN type of question, but is there a way to see a list of differences between one's local copy and the origin branch? I'm after something analogous to "svn status -u" really (yes, I know I could get my hands scorched for such things. :P). Is this possible?

I've tried:
git-diff-tree -p origin/master

But that won't list changes waiting for me that I would get when I issue a "git pull".

Many thanks,
Thomas Adam
