git diff: how to see only staged/cached/indexed differences?

Question

I want to see a context diff for only my indexed changes with git diff.

Here's what I'm seeing:

C:\GitProject\DiffTestProject [master +0 ~1 -0]> git diff
diff --git a/a.txt b/a.txt
index 07d4aba..e9944e6 100644
Binary files a/a.txt and b/a.txt differ

Try `diff -a` to force all files to be examined as text files. — tripleee, Dec 25 '13 at 14:49

git diff filename # see uncommitted changes
git diff --cached # see the difference between index and last commit.
