As pointed out on a comment by amalloy, if by "current and last versions" you mean the last commit and the commit before that, you could simply use

git show

This is what I was looking for. Great answer. – CodeManiak Jan 19 at 22:50

Simpler. This should be the accepted answer. – jbmusso Mar 2 at 9:21

Use git show HEAD~1 to show the last-but-one commit, and git show HEAD~2, etc. for older commits. Show just a single file via git show HEAD~2 my_file. – Florian Brucker Mar 3 at 10:43

Assuming "current version" is the working directory (uncommitted modifications) and "last version" is HEAD (last committed modifications for the current branch), simply do

git diff HEAD

credit for following goes to user Cerran

And if you always skip the staging area with -a when you commit, then you can simply use git diff.

Summary

git diff shows unstaged changes.
git diff --cached shows staged changes.
git diff HEAD shows all changes (both staged and unstaged).
