My question is just same as the title.
I learned how to see the difference between commits, but I don't know how when I want to see between the last commit and current state, not the commit!
Aren't there no direct ways to do this?

Just git diff with no commit will show the difference between the index and the working tree. If you haven't git added or git rmed anything, then the index will be the same as the last commit.
git diff --cached will show the difference between the last commit and the index.
git diff HEAD will show the difference of the working tree from the last commit (HEAD). This will be the combination of the changes in the index and the change between the index and the working tree.

Note also thatgit diff --cachedimpliesgit diff --cached HEAD. You can compare any existing commit to the index this way:git diff <commit>means compare named commit to work-tree andgit diff --cached <commit>means compare named commit to index. The odd man out here isgit diffwith no arguments, which means compare index to work-tree – most non-diff Git commands, with no additional commit-name specified, have an impliedHEAD, but withgit diff, the impliedHEADonly occurs when you add--cached.
