+COMMANDS                                                      *diffs-commands*
+
+:Gdiff [revision]                                                    *:Gdiff*
+    Open a unified diff of the current file against a git revision. Displays
+    in a horizontal split below the current window.
+
+    The diff buffer shows `+`/`-` lines with full syntax highlighting for the
+    code language, plus diff header highlighting for `diff --git`, `---`,
+    `+++`, and `@@` lines.
+
+    Parameters: ~
+        {revision}  (string, optional) Git revision to diff against.
+                    Defaults to HEAD.
+
+    Examples: >vim
+        :Gdiff          " diff against HEAD
+        :Gdiff main     " diff against main branch
+        :Gdiff HEAD~3   " diff against 3 commits ago
+        :Gdiff abc123   " diff against specific commit

+
+:Gvdiff [revision]                                                  *:Gvdiff*
+    Like |:Gdiff| but opens in a vertical split.
+
+:Ghdiff [revision]                                                  *:Ghdiff*
+    Like |:Gdiff| but explicitly opens in a horizontal split.
