Git file permissions on Windows

by

I’ve read through a few questions regarding file permissions in Git and I’m still a bit confused. I’ve got a repo on GitHub forked from another. Post merge, they should be identical. However:

$ git diff --summary origin/epsilon master/epsilon
 mode change 100644 => 100755 ants/dist/sample_bots/csharp/compile.sh
 mode change 100644 => 100755 ants/dist/starter_bots/coffeescript/MyBot.coffee
 mode change 100644 => 100755 ants/dist/starter_bots/coffeescript/ants.coffee
 mode change 100644 => 100755 ants/util/block_test.sh
 mode change 100644 => 100755 manager/mass_skill_update.py
 mode change 100644 => 100755 worker/jailguard.py
 mode change 100644 => 100755 worker/release_stale_jails.py
 mode change 100644 => 100755 worker/start_worker.sh

I’ve tried changing file permissions, but it does not alter the diff results.
