# How Do I Show the Changes Which Have Been Staged?

To show the changes that have been staged (i.e., changes that have been added to the staging area), you can use the `git diff --cached` command. Here's how:

```bash
git diff --cached
```

This command will display the differences between the files in the staging area and the last commit. In other words, it shows the changes that are staged and ready to be committed.

### Note:

- The `-cached` option is equivalent to `-staged` and specifies that you want to compare the changes against the staging area.
- If you prefer a more compact output, you can use the `-stat` option to display a summary of changes instead of a detailed diff:
    
    ```bash
    git diff --cached --stat
    ```
    
- After reviewing the staged changes, you can proceed with committing them using `git commit`.
