Is it possible to stop vim from telling me that the mode of a file has changed?
For example when I do a chmod +x ?

thanks

To ask only if something more than just time or mode have changed, you can paste the following (untested, but I believe it should work) into your vimrc:

   :autocmd FileChangedShell *
       \    if (v:fcs_reason == "mode") || (v:fcs_reason == "time")  |
       \        let v_fcs_choice = ""  |
       \    else  |
       \        let v:fcs_choice = "ask"  |
       \    endif

To never ask and always read

   :set autoread

There are other possibilities, see
   :help autocmd.txt
   :help FileChangedShell
   :help v:fcs_reason
   :help v:fcs_choice

HTH,
Tony.
