Running git diff informed me there were no changes to content, which is
what I forgot to add to the description of the problem.

Unfortunately, right now I'm not at the system where this occurred, so
I can't say what git config looks like. I did not, however, make any
customization other than user.email and alias.st and some others.

Reading up about core.fileMode in git-config(1), I think you've pointed
me to the solution. I should probably just set it to false. If that doesn't
solve the issue, I'll report back.

Google also found me an old patch that might be related to the problem:

[PATCH] Force core.filemode to false on Cygwin.
