I don't know if that works or not, but it does seem plausible, at
least. My idea would have been to use the --name-status option, which
works for both git diff and git show. You just look and see which
lines in the output start with M or A and then take the file names
from those lines.

So to indent files that are dirty, you would look at:

git diff --name-status

For what's cached:

git diff --name-status --cached

For the combination of the two:

git diff --name-status HEAD

For a prior commit:

git show --name-status $COMMITID
