使用差异工具在上次提交和当前状态之间查看差异

Question

I know this must be a very basic question but I'm brand new to git .

I want to launch the diff tool ( Meld in my case) to see the differences between my latest push (the status in the master branch in Github ) and the current status of my repo. I have not committed any changes yet and if I run git status I see that some files have changed since my last commit+push.

I've tried

git diff --cached --color

but it does nothing.

What command should I use?

Answer 1

Try git difftool . That should launch your configured "difftool" from your ~/.gitconfig.
