Change GitChanges so it compares against the remote #18
Conversation
The previous version was comparing against HEAD~1 which would: A. Miss any changes prior to that of the last commit that had not yet been pushed B. Grab changes not necessarily made by the current user (for example if the current user only had staged changes but no commits, HEAD~1 would grab those changes as well as the changes from the last commit)

please replace origin to master...HEAD

The only reason I didn't opt for that approach was that it always compares against master. What I was going for with the origin approach was to compare against the current branch's tracked remote branch. The issue you might be seeing is that the branch you are working off of doesn't exist in the remote repo. I am not sure I tested that case, but I will do so shortly to confirm.

hmmm I just ran git diff --name-only origin on a brach that isn't in the remote repo and it worked correctly for me (showing in the diagram above both the committed and unstaged changes that were not yet pushed to origin, essentially everything I have done locally since the last pull/rebase).
What were you seeing for results?

is your remote named origin? I am assuming yes because that is the default behavior, but just double checking.

I tried git diff --name-only origin. but it failed.
$ git branch

master

$ git diff --name-only origin
fatal: ambiguous argument 'origin': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'
is that command works fine in all situations?
