- Compare the working directory with a specific commit:
`git diff-index {{commit}}`
- Compare a specific file or directory in working directory with a commit:
`git diff-index {{commit}} {{path/to/file_or_directory}}`
- Compare the working directory with the index (staging area) to check for staged changes:
`git diff-index --cached {{commit}}`
- Suppress output and return an exit status to check for differences:
`git diff-index --quiet {{commit}}`
