You can use 'eg diff' to get the direct equivalent of svn diff, if you install EasyGit (eg). Otherwise, use 'git diff HEAD'. (one caveat: 'git diff HEAD' doesn't make sense in the case of an incomplete merge, because there isn't just one last revision to compare to, but two since you are merging things together. In such a case, you'd use something else; though eg diff works just fine.)
