Summary
I have a problem when 160 (out of 3,605) image files are displayed as "not verified" on Git, but I know that these files are, in fact, tracked. When the repository is cloned again, these files are included.
This only happens on my Mac (OS X 10.8.4). I am using Git version 1.7.12.4 (Apple Git -37). It works great on my Windows 8 VM and on other computers (tested with colleagues).
More details
git status
A few relevant facts about this particular repository:
- There are no
.gitignore , .gitattributes or .gitconfig . - Currently, there is only 1 branch (
master ), with only 1 initial commit. - Previously, there was a remote branch where a group of files was deleted. This branch has been deleted (for me); he never merged anywhere.
- I have not made (intentional) local changes for any files in this repository.
Among other things, I tried this:
git rm --cached -r . git reset --hard git status
The same list of "unplayed" files is displayed (full list in the edited section below).
git ls-files "[ one_of_the_untracked_pngs ]" --error-unmatch error: pathspec '"[ one_of_the_untracked_pngs ]"' did not match any file(s) known to git. Did you forget to 'git add'?
Each of the files does not appear to be tracked, but they definitely exist in the remote repository.
I also tried to delete and re-clone the repository, but to no avail. All other Git repositories that I cloned on the same machine behave as expected.
Editing (after comments and further investigation)
I found several .jpg among all .png , so it seems this is not a file type problem (although my original one). After Joachim's comment, I began to think about casing.
The paths and names of the affected files are different in different ways, but I could not recognize the common pattern. The paths and file names used are best described as arbitrary.
Here is the complete list of affected files:

Does anyone know why this might happen? Help with thanks.
