I frequently find myself wanting to ask the latter question, and searching through the diff for my current position is tedious. If the answer is "nothing, but there are changes elsewhere in the file", putting point on a hunk boundary shows what the nearest changes are.
That's quite a lot of patches you got there. It think they should be
considered separately.
In case you were wondering, though, diff-hl (available in ELPA) offers
the "go to the relevant part of the diff" feature via remapping the
vc-diff command.
