I sent a patch that converts to "visible" characters when looked at with iso-8859-1/windows-1252 googles. It also tests the file system before executing the test.

The description is misleading. Git on cygwin chooses to ignore the executable flag by default, not because the filesystem won't handle it, but rather that enough many *other* applications sets it needlessly, that ignoring it becomes less problematic than honouring it.
Adding "git config core.filemode true" at the start of this test verifiies that it works on NTFS too.
