Subject: A puzzling omission from the Git book
Date: Fri, 29 Mar 2019 12:55:48 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <373066205.20190329125548@ptoye.com> (raw)

I'm looking for a way of comparing the files in two branches. According to Stack Overflow there's a git diff command but I can't see any reference to it in the book. Am I being more than usually thick?

The Git Gui app doesn't seem to have that command in it either. A bit frustrating.

 
Yours,

Peter
