| [egit-dev] bug for egit synchronize view showing diff when there are no real diff - git status "fixes" it | 
Hey,
I'm trying to figure out the proper fix for this issue 
https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/460751/
which is that egit synchronize view shows a tons of "conflicting 
changes" when there in reality are only one change.
The reproducible test I have is as follows:
git clone https://github.com/joshuawilson/snowdrop-examples
cd snowdrop-examples
git fetch origin snowdrop-less
git co snowdrop-less
git status  shows no changes.
Now import the project in eclipse and use synchronize view.
Now multiple files shows up as conflicting changes.
Why ?
Then I run 'git status' on the command a few times and voila, egit 
synchronize view now shows the correct state: no changes.
Is this a known issue ? what is the git status command doing that makes 
egit conform to reality ?
