remote diff

Yakov Lerner· Jul 20, 2006, 11:54 UTC · lore

I have local repo, and remote repo ssh://x/y/.git.

I tried to diff local repo against remote, with naive 'git-diff ssh://x/y/.git.' But this did not work. How do I diff with remote repo ?

Pull it to a new branch and diff the two branches. This should be a pretty cheap operation unless either of the two repos has seen a lot of development since you forked the code.
