I make an arbitrary change to a file within my git working directory.
git status does not recognized that the file has changed.
git add /path/to/file has no effect.
git add -f /path/to/file has no effect.
git status /path/to/file shows the file as in the 'changes to be committed' bucket.
I removed my .gitignore file, just to be sure. No change to any of the above behaviors.
I have done git reset --hard, re-made my change. No change to any of the above behaviors.
What could be going on here?
