Subject: diff-index --cached on bare repository
Message-ID: <glv901$c5v$1@ger.gmane.org>

Hi list,

today I stumbled over the output of "git diff-index --cached HEAD" in a 
bare repository. While diff-index HEAD just reminds me that I got to 
have a work-tree, --cached outputs all the files in HEAD as deleted. The 
question is if this is intended behaviour? Or is it irrelevant because 
diff-index is only plumbing? I found a mail of the gitk-team working 
around this, which is funny because I discovered this while working on 
GitX.

So please, enlighten me ;)

Greetings,
Jojo
