I've done the diff implementation, but I wanted to check, as the last one
that I've got to do, is update, and it's giving me some grief. Mostly in
assignined the concept of Working Copy to what?

In jazz, we basically have (from what I understand, similar to git) two or
three levels of repositories.

Working from the group up:

1. We have, on our local machine, the sandbox. This is where things reside
as files and directories on our disk.
2. We have, on the jazz server, a (the full name), Remote Repository
Workspace (or more commonly Workspace). This is a logical construct on the
server.
3. Optionally, we have, on the jazz server a (official name:) a flow target
of the Repository Workspace. This is usually a Stream (closest thing is a
branch), but can also be another Repository Workspace. We can have multiple
Flow Targets.

We checkin/load to/from the sandbox and the repository workspace.
We deliver to our flow targets, or accept from our flow targets. This is
controlled by the pushChanges flag, and is, from what I understand the same
as the git push/pull.

To, in Jazz it's a two stage process. I have to accept changes from the
stream, and I then have to load them into the sandbox (I don't appear to
have the conveienance of an update).

For the diff command, what I am I doing the diff between? The sandbox and
the repository (ie files that I have not checked in), or the repository and
the stream (if a valid flow target exists) (ie, changes made by others).

That is where the original question of what the gif diff came from, as I
don't know what the currently implementation is actually doing, so that I
can work out how to best map it to jazz SCM behaviour.

One git specific question though, does a git pull, pull the changes all the
way down to your working copy? Again, sorry for the git ignorance.
