It really should "just have worked". Can you show what the diff actually
looked like, and your exact command history?
If it was something like
git clone remote-repo localdir
cd localdir
vi somefile
git diff
Yes, exactly right.
Did you by any chance do chmod -R, chown -R or start an ntp daemon
somewhere in between there (don't know if clock skews will be detected
by git, but...)?
then you did everything right, and if it gives any diff other than your
changes to "somefile", something is buggy. Need more info.
Does "git diff" and "git diff HEAD" give different results, btw?
Yes. the two commands give the same results.
Decidedly odd. What happens when you do "git update-index --refresh" and
then re-run the "git diff > my.patch" thing?
