Hi everyone!

I encountered a strange situation on OS X recently. I cloned a repository (https://github.com/kevinxucs/Sublime-Gitignore.git), went to folder, and saw "Changes not staged for commit" message for four specific files. It happened every time I repeated the procedure. I even was able to commit those to the repo. At first I thought there's something wrong with repo, but I cloned it on Ubuntu 16.04 and everything was OK; no "Changes not staged for commit" message.

Does anyone have any idea?
Thank you.

The rest of the log is available at https://github.com/kevinxucs/Sublime-Gitignore/issues/6. (I don't want this email to become too long.)
