hi,

the man branch of git.git contains the following lines in git-diff.1:

EXAMPLES
      Various ways to check your working tree

             $ git diff            (1)
             $ git diff --cached   (2)
             $ git diff HEAD       (3)

             1. changes in the working tree not yet staged for the next commit.
             2. changes between the index and your last commit; what you would be committing if you run "git
             commit" without "-a" option.
             3. changes in the working tree since your last commit; what you would be committing if you run
             "git commit -a"

when building the manpages myself i get the followings:

EXAMPLES
      Various ways to check your working tree

              $ git diff            \fB(1)\fR
              $ git diff --cached   \fB(2)\fR
              $ git diff HEAD       \fB(3)\fR
          .sp \fB1. \fRchanges in the working tree not yet staged for the next commit.

          .br \fB2. \fRchanges between the index and your last commit; what you would be committing if you run
          "git commit" without "-a" option.

          .br \fB3. \fRchanges in the working tree since your last commit; what you would be committing if you
          run "git commit -a"

          .br

what can be the problem?

i have asciidoc-8.2.2 and docbook-xml 4.2 installed. i'm building with
ASCIIDOC8=YesPlease.

if i missed any required info, please mention :)

Are you using docbook xsl 1.72? There are known problems building the manpages with that version. 1.71 works, and 1.73 should work when it get released.
