Hi,

Actually, no. I expect "git diff HEAD@{yesterday} git.txt" to work fine, 
and "git show HEAD@{yesterday}:git.c" also, both when in Documentation/, 
because I expect "git show HEAD@{yesterday}:git.c" to work _also_ when I 
set GIT_DIR=/path/to/my/bare-repo.git/ before that, while I do not expect 
the call to git-diff to work (for obvious reasons).

Ciao,
