Saving a file flags it as assume-unchanged in Git

Problem

When modifying and saving files in the IDE, certain files are marked as "assumed unchanged" in Git, causing them not to appear as modified in the commit pane.

Cause

This behavior is caused by Git configuration settings - in particular core.ignoreStat option in .gitconfig.

Resolution

• Verify that core.ignoreStat option in your Git configuration is set to false or is not set - since by default it is disabled. You can check this by running git config --list | grep ignoreStat.
  • If it's already set to false, proceed to the next step.
