That was already discussed a lot. Any filename test on OSX with a HFS+ filesystem containing characters with a different UTF-8-NFC and UTF-8-NFD will make such a test fail. If you are using OSX, you might want to use UnicodeChecker to see the encoding difference for such characters. If you want to make such tests pass, either use characters with only one UTF-8 encoding or use a UFS partition to run such tests.
I understand why that causes git-status to continually display "gitweb/test/Märchen" as an untracked file, and I'm fine with that (for the most part). But I don't understand why that causes "git add Å/goo/a/b/c/d/e/f/g/h/i/j/k/l/m/n/o/p/q/r/s/t/u/v/w/x/y/z/å/ä/ö/ gårdetsågårdet.txt" to show a message about gitignore, especially when a "git add ." will pick it up just fine. I'd argue that it's a bug in git, personally, and I can't figure out why it happens.
In any case, to get the test to pass we should probably just put a "- f" on the "git add", at which point it works just fine.
