Local uncommitted changes, not checked in to index with gitk

[srinivas naga vutukuri]

just cloning any git repository, next time onwards after pulling
changes, the gitk is showing
at the top "Local uncommitted changes, not checked in to index". Why
it is happening.

What do "git status" and "git diff" say?

Actually am doing around the 2.6 linux kernel git, and once cloned
using rsync url
and then done couple of times the git pull, to sync to the latest to the remote.

I just done "git status", Its giving the following output. But i
have't done around these files anything at all, not opened, etc.

You probably updated the .git/ directory without updating the working
tree. Normally, "git pull" does not do that, so I don't know what's
wrong.

Can you provide exactly the way to reproduce? i.e. stg like

$ git status
# nothing
$ git pull
$ git status
# something

You are on a case-insensitive file system. The linux kernel source
requires a case-sensitive file system because the sources contain both of
these files:

include/linux/netfilter/xt_connmark.h
include/linux/netfilter/xt_CONNMARK.h

(ditto for the other cases that you observed).

Yes, you are right, am using cygwin, without having the point in mind,
i simply thought some thing is going wrong on the git side, I just
compared with the gitweb copy on the kernel.org.

I just seen in the cygwin faqs, could possibility of case sensitive
managed mount in cygwin,
have to see if can achieve that.

And thanks for giving clarity.
