I'm seeing this problem too, accessing a git repository on a Samba share.

Steps to reproduce:
- create git repository on linux;
- connect from OS X over Samba;
- git status (over samba) reports all files as changed;
- git diff works, it only shows the actual differences;
- after the first git diff, any subsequent git status will work,
  even after disconnecting and reconnecting to the samba share.
