Andrew,

Thanks for checking this on your machine.

This problem occurs on Mac, Windows, and Linux, and with multiple versions of git. Note that in my script a CR is appended to test.txt. On the Mac, you can generate this in Terminal by pressing Ctrl-V Ctrl-M. Or, alternatively, just download and run the script like this: "sh git_failure.sh"
