Yes, #difftastic *can* produce a much nicer diff, but only in some cases like this. I have several diff aliases, because there isn't one to rule them all. My favorite is

git diff --word-diff=color --word-diff-regex='[^[:space:][:punct:]]+'

Not perfect as it swallows some non-text characters, but very compact, whereas difftastic is often very noisy for me.
