Later when Git does a readdir() to find out what files are in the directory Mac OS X is returning it with a different encoding. There's more details in the list archives; all I know is Mac OS X is broken here. And we Mac users get to suffer... P.S. I'm also a Mac OS X user. I've gotten used to that file showing up and just visually ignore it now. *sigh* -- Shawn.
