Dirty version although there are no uncommited changes

i saw that you don't do anything special here, that's why i'm confused myself of why that problem occurs.

That does seem odd. I don't know enough about your project to reproduce the issue, but perhaps an update to jgit might help (it's a few versions old now). I'll ping here when it's ready.

0.4.5 is published, please give it a try and see if the problem is fixed. If not, if you could point me at a dummy (or real) project that exhibits this behavior I can try to develop a workaround?

tried 0.4.5 no luck - like so often it seems it is a problem with our setup. i tried jgit for windows as described here: https://gist.github.com/oculushut/2413a93f311980f18910

then i was able to see that it detects some uncommited changes. git doesn't. it seems to be an issue with uppercase/lowercase in combination with windows maybe. I'm trying to resolve it now, but obviously this means it is not a problem of this library :)

I agree. https://www.midgetontoes.com/2014/10/17/maven-jgitflow-working-tree-has-uncommitted-changes/ might give you some clues. Thanks for letting us know about it anyway!

BTW: as a workaround you can disable "dirty" detection by customizing the format. e.g.:

format "%tag%%-count%%-commit%%-branch%"

I also have this issue: repo

I applied the workaround, but I still don't know what causes the project to be marked as dirty. Is there some debugging or logging possible to determine what may be causing this?

We get the dirty report from jgit, so it may either be something on disk during the build, or it may be a problem with jgit. What OS is this on?

Hi, I'm on macOS 10.11.6, using Android Studio 3.3

Hi again, fixed it, I downloaded jgit.sh at https://www.eclipse.org/jgit/download/, and ran jgit.sh status and got:

Changes not staged for commit:

	deleted:    app/src/main/java/io/github/sdsstudios/nvidiagpumonitor/Controllers/BaseController.kt

Untracked files:

	app/src/main/java/io/github/sdsstudios/nvidiagpumonitor/controllers/BaseController.kt

Notice Controllers and controllers, jgit seems to be case sensitive compared to the system git git version 2.19.1

I did the following and committed the changes to fix the dirty status:

git rm -r --cached .
git add .

Nice troubleshooting there! Thank you.

I wonder if git config core.ignorecase true would have made a difference?
