 SYNOPSIS
 --------
-'git-diff-files' [-p] [-q] [-r] [-z] [-M] [-C] [-R] [-S<string>] [<pattern>...]
+'git-diff-files' [-q] [-0|-1|-2|-3|-c|--cc] [<common diff options>] [<path>...]
 
 DESCRIPTION
 -----------
-Compares the files in the working tree and the cache.  When paths
+Compares the files in the working tree and the index.  When paths
 are specified, compares only those named paths.  Otherwise all
-entries in the cache are compared.  The output format is the
-same as "git-diff-cache" and "git-diff-tree".
+entries in the index are compared.  The output format is the
+same as "git-diff-index" and "git-diff-tree".
 
 OPTIONS

--p::
-	generate patch (see section on generating patches).
+include::diff-options.txt[]
+
+-1 -2 -3 or --base --ours --theirs, and -0::
+	Diff against the "base" version, "our branch" or "their
+	branch" respectively.  With these options, diffs for
+	merged entries are not shown.
++
+The default is to diff against our branch (-2) and the 
+cleanly resolved paths.  The option -0 can be given to
+omit diff output for unmerged entries and just show "Unmerged".
+
+-c,--cc::
+	This compares stage 2 (our branch), stage 3 (their
+	branch) and the working tree file and outputs a combined
+	diff, similar to the way 'diff-tree' shows a merge
+	commit with these flags.
 
 -q::
 	Remain silent even on nonexisting files
 
--R::
-	Output diff in reverse.
-
--M::
-	Detect renames; implies -p.
-
--C::
-	Detect copies as well as renames; implies -p.
-
--S<string>::
-	Look for differences that contains the change in <string>.
-
-
--r::
-	This flag does not mean anything.  It is there only to match
-	git-diff-tree.  Unlike git-diff-tree, git-diff-files always looks
-	at all the subdirectories.
