Hello,

I found the core.filemode option, which ignores executable bits,
but I
need an option to ignore all mode differences, and such an option
does
not seem to exist.

The only mode tracked by Git is the executable bit, so this shouldn't
even be an issue. Are you sure the executable bit isn't the problem?

$ git config --global core.filemode
false

Output of "git diff HEAD" :

diff --git a/Makefile.PL b/Makefile.PL
old mode 100755
new mode 100644
diff --git a/t/02ads.t b/t/02ads.t
old mode 100755
new mode 100644
diff --git a/t/02cxn.t b/t/02cxn.t
old mode 100755
new mode 100644
diff --git a/t/04os.t b/t/04os.t
old mode 100755
new mode 100644

Those are all executable bit diffs.


Ok, but I have core.filemode set to "false" as I showed, why does this
happen then?

I can't confirm this on linux with current git. What are your versions?
Do you have a minimal example (starting from git init)?

This is msysGit:

$ git --version
git version 1.7.3.1

I can't replicate this with just "git init" and a file, it seems to
happen when I use "git cpan-init" in Cygwin then look at the repo in
msysGit.

Actually, I can replicate this in Cygwin git:

$ git --version
git version 1.7.3.3

$ cd ~/src
$ mkdir test-repo
$ cd test-repo
$ git init
$ touch README
$ git add README
$ git commit -a -m'test commit'
$ git diff HEAD
$ chmod +x README
$ git diff HEAD
diff --git a/README b/README
old mode 100644
new mode 100755
$ git config --global core.filemode
false

The way the executable bit works seems to be different between Cygwin and msys, but in either case core.filemode seems to not be working properly.
