EGit checkout changes file permissions [message #730309]

Hi,

I am using Eclipse EGit 1.1.0.201109151100-r with Eclipse Indigo on Kubuntu 11.04.

Everything was fine but suddenly an EGit checkout changes the file permissions. After switching a branch via EGit I have a lot of staged files.

'git diff --cached' gives:

diff --git FILENAME_REMOVED
old mode 100755
new mode 100644

Doing a hard reset of the working space with EGit does not solve the problem with changed permissions (which is expected not to work I guess).

This behaviour is independent of the core.filemode setting for git.

When I do a checkout at the shell via 'git checkout -f master' this problem does not occur.

Is this a bug? Can someone help with this issue?

Best regards

Here is an additional observation:

The problem with file permissions does not occur when checking out the branch which has been checked out via shell the last time.

Example:

EGit checkout of branch "A" ---> file permission issue occurs
EGit checkout of branch "B" ---> file permission issue occurs
EGit checkout of branch "A" ---> file permission issue occurs
'git checkout -f A" ---> no issue
EGit checkout of branch "B" ---> file permission issue occurs
EGit checkout of branch "A" ---> no issue
