1. Have you managed to reproduce this on any other repos? 2. Is the repo, or a demonstrable fault variant, available publically? 3. What does a diff of the current state with its last commit say (i.e. what is the full detail hidden below the simple status)? 4. Are yo at least able to share the filename/path of those failing files (should it be related to that)? 5. Does it have sub-modules ??
Are you able to try with a newer version 1.8.x to see if it's a fixed bug.

I'm seeing a modified file when I clone a git repository created on my linux machine, onto a Windows machine. I tried gc'ing the repo, setting core.autocrlf to true on the Windows machine, changing from cygwin git to msysgit, nothing helps. Cloning to a linux machine does not show the modified file.

I'm using the version of git available via apt- get for ubuntu: 1.7.0.4. I have used Git for few months After the last commit, it now seems very broken. While on that commit it shows 4 files as changed that have not been changed. If I 'git reset --hard', there is no effect, the files are still shown as changed. If I 'git checkout <filename>' one of the files, no effect. If I clone the repository anew, it shows about 100 files as changed in the master branch (different branch from above). Most of these are plugin or javascript files that we have not edited. This is a newly cloned local repository. Same behavior by reset --hard and checkout as above: no effect. Here's reset: $ git reset --hard HEAD is now at 7145157 Neighborhoods list is a one-column list in new service offering page $ git st # On branch master # Changed but not updated: # (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed) # (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory) # # modified: public/javascripts/tiny_mce/langs/en.js # modified: public/javascripts/tiny_mce/plugins/advhr/css/advhr.css ....many more files 'git fsck' gives no output. I even did a 'git gc' on my local repository, push it to a new remote repository and cloned that. The problem is still there! WTF is going on? I'm losing my mind.
