Just tried, doesn't work. The following are steps of what I was doing: M-x magit -> l -> L -> n -> -> n Then I got the "diff" output in other window, which shows everything is different, of course most of the difference are CRLF difference, suck!!! What appeared strange to me is that it seems that magit never called "git diff" to get this "diff". Can anybody tell me what I'm missing here? Thanks, York
