visualise the output of git-diff?

Hi,
this is about displaying git-diff results:
in case of long text lines, where only a single word may be changed, it would 
be useful, if that single difference would be displayed in a different 
colour, but is it possible?
And about pager - are you people all using less or there are also some 
non-console viewers available?

I started working on a patch for that feature a while back and then  
got snowed under by other work, but it's still on my TODO list. There  
was some discussion on the list about the idea.

The relevant thread starts with
	
	Message-ID: [off-list ref]
	Subject: RFC: git diff colorization idea
