Get a patch file for a single file changed in the working directory (i.e. not committed):

Git

$ git diff myChangedFile.as > myChangedFile.patch 

LibGit2Sharp

var patch = repo.Diff.Compare<Patch> (new List<string>(){"myChangedFile.as" }); 

Complete cut/paste example:

using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using LibGit2Sharp; namespace libgitdiff{class MainClass{public static void Main (string[] args){var repo = new Repository ("/your/repo/path"); foreach (var item in repo.RetrieveStatus()){if (item.State == FileStatus.Modified){var patch = repo.Diff.Compare<Patch> (new List<string>(){item.FilePath }); Console.WriteLine ("~~~~ Patch file ~~~~"); Console.WriteLine (patch.Content)} } } } }
