The execute bit is the only permission that Git actually records: http://book.git-scm.com/1_the_git_object_model.html Unfortunately, it's the only one that's giving you grief here. You might try setting the noacl mount option for the Cygwin mount containing your repository: http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#mount-table Another option may be to hack a post-save action into gVim that uses Cygwin's chmod command to remove the execute bit from newly saved files: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4627701/vim-how-to-execute-automatically-execute-a-shell-command-after-saving-a-file If all else fails, you could also install the Windows-native build of Git and use that instead. Cygwin's gVim may also make sense to use here instead of the native one, but I remember you saying that the native gVim integrates better for what you do. -Jeremy -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
