I see that there's a --copy-back option that probably provides the behavior that I want. It would be nice if it "just worked" without the option, and if the path that git-diffall presents to my diff tool were literally the working tree directory.

The --copy-back
option was intended to provide this behavior. When used, your diff tool should show the path as "working_tree" for the files.
I specifically avoided having --copy-back
be the default behavior to match the way git difftool
works. However, I probably need to take another look to see how strongly I feel about that decision.

As the script works today, it only copies files that have been added, modified or deleted to the temp directory. This reduces disk space and processing time by only working on files that are needed for the comparison. On large repos, this can be important.
If the script were changed to use the actual working copy directory as one of the diff targets, then the temp directory would need a complete copy of the repo files as well, instead of just a copy of the files needed for comparison.

For now, you could simply add a line to your copy of the script that always sets copy_back=1
. Anywhere after line 68 in the HEAD version would work.

Thanks, Tim.
