Are you on a case-insensitive filesystem like HFS+?

Is it possible that restful_authentication exists as a file in
your working directory, but as a directory in Git, but with a
different case?

What does `git ls-tree HEAD:vendor/plugins` show you as the last
committed contents of vendor/plugins?

I'm a little stumped, but it sounds like the issues that have come
up before due to a case-insensitive filesystem.
