Then you see a combined diff where the "first parent" is the index and the "second parent" is the commit that you selected. Without having looked at the code and its history, I guess that this is an accident that nobody has bothered to fix, because it is not a very useful way to show differences between the worktree and a selected commit. -- Hannes
