Re: Git on macOS shows committed files as untracked

Thanks for the fast analyzes -
in short:
what does
git -c core.precomposeunicode=true status
say ?

The easiest thing may be to set
git config --global core.precomposeunicode true

Good suggestion.

I learned a new thing today.  I somehow thought that precompose
trick was only about argv[] when a program starts up and did not
apply to paths readdir(3) finds through dir.c, e.g.

    $ git add .

But apparently there is replacement readdir() used in compat/ for
MacOSX so the paths from the system are also covered by the
configuration.
