Hi *, I use the following alias: [alias] wdiff = diff --color-words and it no longer works outside of a working copy since: af05d67 (Always set *nongit_ok in setup_git_directory_gently()) The problem is with the alias system that detects if you are in a working copy, not with the command, as the command just works fine.
