Description:
Running a git status command shows modified files, with only changed file permissions. This can be due the IDE, for example PHPStorm is known for being a bit too nosy.
diff –git a/myproject/index.php b/myproject/index.php
old mode 100644
new mode 100755
Solution:
Git configuration contains an entry that defines if file permission changes should be considered as changes or not. Do disable this, just run the following:
git config core.filemode false
