Git will also store the mode of the file.  Are you sure the file stored
within git doesn't have the 664 mode?  The other problems are mixing the
various git operators with Cygwin git.  For instance the embedded git of
Netbeans doesn't cooperate well with Cygwin git because of subtle
differences in the native versus Cygwin.
