[PATCH] builtin/diff: fix incorrect comment

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A comment in cmd_diff() states that if one tree-ish and no blobs are
provided, it would provide a diff between the tree and the cache. This
is incorrect because a diff happens between the tree-ish and the working
tree. Remove the `--cached` in the comment so that the correct behavior
is shown.
