git commit and git status in long format show the diff between HEAD and the index when given -v. This allows previewing a commit to be made. They also list tracked files with unstaged changes, but without a diff. Introduce '-v -v' which shows the diff between the index and the worktree in addition to HEAD index diff. This allows to review unstaged changes which might be missing from the commit. Signed-off-by: Michael J Gruber <git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Also, the git status man page does not mention -v at all, and the doc for git status (long format) and the status parts of the git commit man page should really be the same. In any case, this may have helped the OP with his amend oversight.
