Re: Getting rid of "mode change" on cygwin

I just switched from svn to git and in my first git commit all files get status

mode change 100644 => 100755

I don't care about the file mode much, the 755 mode makes no sense but is 
probably some cygwin magic, as it may be hard to emulate the perms, so it simply 
considers all files as executables. I can't change the mode, since chmod a-x 
does nothing at all. Actually, I don't care about the perms at all, I'd be happy 
if git would show "no change" for unchanged files.

$ git config core.filemode false
