If you only want to see the diff applied to master, you
should run:
$ git diff --ours
Does "git diff HEAD" have the same/similar effect?
You can also have a look at what is currently being applied:
$ git diff :1:gcc/tree-ssa-threadedge.c :3:gcc/tree-ssa-threadedge.c
By the way, does anybody know a better way to do that ?
In a merge, you can say "git diff ...MERGE_HEAD" (three-dots). You
should be able to tell "git show" the commit you are trying to pick
during a cherry-pick, I think.
