Subject: using git-diff as a diff replacement?
Message-ID: <CA+P7+xq7gobJbbRxm51APMQ8408jyvW64=1y3wo3jz3rjMsDqA@mail.gmail.com>

Hey,

I know that running "git diff <path> <path>" when outside a git
project will result in a normal diff being run. I happen to prefer the
diff algorithm and diff output of "git diff" but there does not seem
to be a way to have this behavior from within a git tree.

Is there a way to pass an option to git-diff which will result in
strict file comparison?

Thanks,
Jake
