I doubt that it is Git-for-Windows (the .exe), but could easily believe that the whole scenario is predicated on the Windows line endings and personal .gitconfigs (some of which may be GfW norms) and the repository's upstream norms (such as what is committed in the repo). Given the repos/remotes listed your email in https://public-inbox.org/git/f454bf5b-c5ff-4140-02a8-b02dcd35c6b9@xxxxxxxxxx/, What are all your differing configs between Windows & Linux testing and their location (i.e. use ` git config --list --show-origin --show-scope`). The comparison you suggest, I believe, is between master:1b348b6b67dcdc120f5ac9dc409142b8ec2b4a09 (17 Apr 2021) and the detached https://github.com/User4martin/binutils-gdb/commit/a362ee23634 "recording file death" (8 Dec 1992) (is that the commit you really wanted to detach and compare with?) The Github compare wasn't helpful as there are too many changes [https://github.com/red-prig/binutils-gdb/compare/1b348b6..a362ee23634] Just thinking about an MVCE. > > I checked on 2 linux distros (git 2.25 and 2.31.1) and both are fine. > > On Windows I set > core.autocrlf false > core.fscache false > > Made a new clone, some (applied config as above), issue still present. > > Tested with gitforwindow 2.32, 2.31.1 and 2.30.2 > Philip
