Here is a quick test case for a word-diff error, using v1.7.10.4 (debian wheezy package).

 Setting up:

tmp$ mkdir foo && cd foo foo$ git init Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/foo/.git/ foo (master)$ echo '*.py diff=python' > .gitattributes foo (master)$ echo 'for name in bar.blurb:' > v1.py foo (master)$ echo 'for name in foo.bar.blurb:' > v2.py

 This looks fine:

foo (master)$ git diff --no-index --word-diff=plain v1.py v2.py

diff --git a/v1.py b/v2.py
index a6a079d..2832331 100644
--- a/v1.py
+++ b/v2.py
@@ -1 +1 @@
for name in {+foo.+}bar.blurb:

 This however is not:

foo (master)$ git diff --no-index --word-diff=plain v2.py v1.py
diff --git a/v2.py b/v1.py
index 2832331..a6a079d 100644
