Show git diff, ignoring file permission changes?

by 
git diff -G"."

The -G flag filters out any file where a line that matches a regular expression has not been added or removed. In this case the regular expression provided is "." which matches any line. So the argument -G"." will filter out files where no lines have been added or removed.

You will need (I think) at least Git version 1.7.10 for this to work. 1.7.2 is too old, at least.
