Yes, it is. The real issue is that the index is out of date, and the full speed of git is not available until a refresh (which you can have with a "git status", too). There are people who want to change the behaviour, and hide the empty diff output, preventing the user from ever knowing why git is so slow. So just run a "git status" and continue.
