Always look at the latest version in my sh-pfc branch ;-)

The "--no-index" option of git diff allows to compare files against each
other, instead of against some other version.
Can be combined with wdiff:

$ git help wdiff
`git wdiff' is aliased to `diff --color-words'

soc-dts-diff (https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-renesas-soc/msg22630.html)
also helps, even for drivers.
