it's inconsistent although I see something more often than not, and only with this particular repository. Sometimes it's one set of files other times it's others. this time it was 2 sometimes it's more like 40 (just throwing numbers around) and that can be the same unchanged clone. seem to happen on checkout. heck even noticed a git reset --hard HEAD didn't clear it all the first time today, in one case.

after sleep I'll see if 1.6.1 fixes my issue.
