Sure.  The index contains multiple competing versions, which you can
see with "git ls-files -u".  To compare the working tree and one of
those use "git diff --base / --ours / --theirs" (or -1 / -2 / -3).

To view changes relative to a particular commit, use "git diff <commit>".
For example, "git diff HEAD".  The git-diff(1) manpage (shown by
"git diff --help") explains.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
