See this note from the git diff-index man page:
Note
As with other commands of this type, git diff-index does not
actually look at the contents of the file at all. So maybe
kernel/sched.c hasn’t actually changed, and it’s just that
you
touched it. In either case, it’s a note that you need to git
update-index it to make the index be in sync.
You can either add an update-index to your script, or use git status
--porcelain.
