Egit shows differences that don't exist [message #1678758]

I'm using Eclipse Luna Service Release 1 (4.4.1) Build id: 20140925-1800 and EGIT plugin 3.4.1.201406201815-r to compare the entire master branch with another branch ("Compare With-->With branch, tag or reference)".

The synchronize view shows many conflicts (with red double-arrows) but these files are absolutely identical (opening the text compare editor shows no text differences, no withespace differences or new-line char differences).

By the way, the command line tool "git diff master branchXX" shows that the two projects are absolutely identical.

Why do EGIT and GIT command line have different behaviour?

Thanks
