Heres whats going on: I am on a mac and in the terminal, I am executing a git pull to a main branch. Al those files come to my local directory and for some reason the permissions are being changed to this: -rwxr-xr-x@ when it should be this: -rw-r--r--. So, when I push these files up to my local branch on github and try to submit a pull request to the main, many files say show this: 100644 → 100755.

I've tried How do I remove files saying "old mode 100755 new mode 100644" from unstaged changes in Git? , but still no luck.

I tried to download the files from the main branch as a zip and replace all my local files but no luck again.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

    My suggestion would be that you figure out why the permissions are being changed to begin with, rather than trying to figure out how to make `git` ignore or otherwise deal with the changes... – twalberg Sep 04 '14 at 19:04

    Welcome to Stack Overflow! Please don't answer just with commands. Try to provide a nice description about how your solution works. See: [How do I write a good answer?](https://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-answer). Thanks – sɐunıɔןɐqɐp Aug 01 '18 at 07:27
  • `core.fileMode` is not the best practice and should be used carefully!. Refer to detailed answer [here](https://stackoverflow.com/a/1580644/3048967) . – ScrapCode Sep 19 '19 at 07:17
