I'm working with Git on my Windows 7 PC on the command line and with TortoiseGit. This works fine. Now I've installed EGit for Eclipse. EGit is showing all files as changed although git status correctly reports, that there are no changes.

Any idea what's wrong?

I also had the similar issue, I have changed the below property of repository setting under Git configuration in eclipse

autocrlf = false

This fixed the problem

You can get more details from the below link too:

There is nothing changed, but eclipse egit marks the file as changed

Basically I added this property as true in order to address ctrl+M chars in script files. Now I am not sure how to address this issue. Any thought on this, please share.
