There still seems to be a confusion of terms here. If you want to take
this any further you will need to make a note of exactly what you are
doing and the exact messages which come up. As Stefan said, files which
are just plain 'updated' are _not_ marked '!' in your working copy and
cannot be diffed. If that really is happening then it is a bug and you
need to provide a reproduction recipe.
