I thought so, too, after playing around with wdiff. But I do use it regularly, and it is helpful. It is my equivalent to the word processor option to show all changes (yes, live and in colour). > We might want to disable it when the output would not be colored under > diff.color = auto, at least, but if the user asks to shoot himself in > the foot that is fine as well ;-). At the moment, this is _only_ enabled when the user explicitely asks for it: no --color-words, no word colours. Do you want to be able to say "git-diff --color-words | patch -p1 -R"?
