LIMITING OUTPUT
---------------
If you're only interested in differences in a subset of files, for
example some architecture-specific files, you might do:
git diff-tree -r <tree-ish> <tree-ish> arch/ia64 include/asm-ia64
and it will only show you what changed in those two directories.
Or if you are searching for what changed in just `kernel/sched.c`, just do
git diff-tree -r <tree-ish> <tree-ish> kernel/sched.c
and it will ignore all differences to other files.
The pattern is always the prefix, and is matched exactly. There are no
wildcards. Even stricter, it has to match a complete path component.
I.e. "foo" does not pick up `foobar.h`. "foo" does match `foo/bar.h`
so it can be used to name subdirectories.
An example of normal usage is:
torvalds@ppc970:~/git> git diff-tree --abbrev 5319e4
:100664 100664 ac348b... a01513... git-fsck-objects.c
which tells you that the last commit changed just one file (it's from
this one:

Make "git-fsck-objects" print out all the root commits it finds.
Once I do the reference tracking, I'll also make it print out all the
HEAD commits it finds, which is even more interesting.
