title: How do I remove files saying "old mode 100755 new mode 100644" from unstaged changes in Git?
body: <p>For some reason, when I initially did a pull from the repository for a git project of mine,
  I got a ton of files in my working copy that have no discernible changes made to them, but keep showing up in my <code>unstaged changes</code> area.  </p>
  
  <p>I'm using Git Gui on Windows xp, and when I go to look at the file to see what has changed.
  All I see is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>old mode 100755  
  new mode 100644  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Does anyone know what this means?  </p>
  
  <p>How can I get these files out of my list of unstaged changes? (Very annoying to have to go through 100's of files, just to pick out files I've recently edited and want to commit).  </p>
