The simple way I have seen is this.. Much easy to remember
(The text format changes. So you need to know the code change)
git diff –color-words
Here is a way to make it default
If you are using linux add the following command to your ~/.bashrc file
Then you can use gitdiff without space as another command .
alias gitdiff="git diff --color-words"
Update:
To set alias directly through git config (Without the help of ~/.bashrc)

Thank you @dylankb for this.
Example:
If you enter the command git config --global alias.ci commit;
then you can use git ci for rest of your life for committing!!
Happy Gitting 🙂
