Well, there's understanding the index, and then there's memorizing the
flags. I would've thought it'd be a lot easier to remember something
like
git diff HEAD INDEX
git diff INDEX WORK
git diff HEAD WORK
than, respectively,
git diff --cached
git diff
git diff HEAD
But maybe that's just me. (And maybe the namespace in question is
already to crowded to allow for INDEX and WORK.)
