Assuming your remote is "origin" and you want to compare to it's branch
"master"....

> git fetch origin

git diff origin/master


This will compare your working copy (which may not be committed yet) to the
master branch you just fetched from origin.  Check out the man page for
git-diff, there's lots of other ways you can use it, if you just want to see
what a commit changed for instance.
