As suggested here getting a diff works fine with v1, but not with v2. Was this overlooked? How could one get a diff with v2?

#160 seems to indicate that this can be done by fetching first. Could one get a git diff without fetching previously?

V2 was optimized to fetch the single commit. Proposal here for additional control over which refs are fetched.

README.md: Document how to do git diff vs. master
bc7e2aa 
actions#161 and many other posts say that doing `git diff` was easy in v1 but is tricky in v2.
Can we please add two items to README.md that describes how to properly do `git diff` in v2?
