How to diff a single, unstaged file in magit-status?












1















How can I display a diff for the actually selected file in magit-status? What can I do in



enter image description here



do display a diff of build/conf/local.conf?



With the now deprecated git-status, I could run git-diff-file (=) to see quickly what has been changed (without visiting the buffer first or digging through the the complete list of unstaged changes).
