From 0231ae71d3d6706183777fbfd91667d620776e87 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Date: Sat, 26 May 2018 14:08:44 +0200 Subject: diff: turn --ita-invisible-in-index on by default MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Due to the implementation detail of intent-to-add entries, the current "git diff" (i.e. no treeish or --cached argument) would show the changes in the i-t-a file, but it does not mark the file as new, while "diff --cached" would mark the file as new while showing its content as empty. $ git diff | $ diff --cached --------------------------------|------------------------------- diff --git a/new b/new | diff --git a/new b/new index e69de29..5ad28e2 100644 | new file mode 100644 --- a/new | index 0000000..e69de29 +++ b/new | @@ -0,0 +1 @@ | +haha | One evidence of the current output being wrong is that, the output from "git diff" (with ita entries) cannot be applied because it assumes empty files exist before applying.
