I have a Homebrew installed version if Git 1.7.8 running on OSX Lion.

I'm seeing a very odd issue where these diffs I didn't create keep recurring in a particular repository.

I've tried:
* Nuking the repo and re-cloning, cloning into a totally different
containing directory
* git reset --hard, git checkout -- of the offending file supposedly
containing the diffs

Is there some sort of uber persistent local cache that's bound to the remote repository?

Thanks in advance, -Chris
