Hi All.
Please cc me on responses, as I don't subscribe to the list.
I'm using a 64 bit install on Windows 10. I just now did an update
and it did not help. The problem is with a particular repo only.
(Or at least, I only see it with this particular repo.) On Linux, do:
git clone git://github.com/arnoldrobbins/bwk-awk
cd bwk-awk
git status
You should see something like this:
$ git clone git://github.com/arnoldrobbins/bwk-awk
Initialized empty Git repository in /u/arnold/bwk-awk/.git/

$ cd bwk-awk
$ git status
# On branch master
nothing to commit (working directory clean)
On Cygwin, something strange happens instead:
$ git clone git://github.com/arnoldrobbins/bwk-awk
Cloning into 'bwk-awk'...

Your branch is up to date with 'origin/master'.
Changes not staged for commit:
(use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
(use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
modified: regdir/Compare.T
modified: regdir/T.delete
modified: regdir/T.getline
modified: regdir/T.redir
modified: regdir/T.split
modified: regdir/T.sub
no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")
The "modified" files are from an earlier commit. Doing git reset --hard has
no effect.
On cygwin:
$ git --version
git version 2.17.0
On Linux:
$ git --version
git version 1.7.1
But it also works OK on a Linux system with git 2.17.1.
Any help would be appreciated. I hope that you can reproduce it.
