Hi list, Our project is (also) using msysgit. Recently we changed the permissions on a file (a Linux shell script) by this (gitk) patch: ----------------------------- xxxx/SQC/SQC.sh ----------------------------- old mode 100644 new mode 100755 We did this on a Linux machine. Now on a Windows machine we pull in the change: This causes problems when checking out the branch on which the change was made: after a checkout the status of SQC.sh is always 'modified' and we can't convince git to reset it. I actually succeeded _once_ but can not remember how I did it. The file is _always_ dirty. Is this a bug? I have to note that when I re-clone the repo I don't have the problem. So it seems to be somewhere in the 'update the working copy' code?
