When output is not redirected to a file, git brings up the pager for
only the diff, which can be confusing, so disable with --no-pager.
git-diff is a porcelain command and thus subject to color options. Use
--no-color, to avoid the patch being corrupted with terminal escape
characters when color.diff=always.
