Identical Files marks as modified

[Viktor Iwan]

Hello,

i update my script. And source tree detect the files as modified, even though the file is identical (i confirmed it by using win merge)

Any idea what might caused this ?

Whitespace changes? Both SourceTree and WinMerge may be configured to ignore whitespace.

It can also be line endings (win/unix) or some other non-printable characters.

Any idea on how to detect this ?

i looked on WinMerge's Options, Whitespace are not being ignored... probably the problem is on SourceTree

It's "Show whitespace"

Your git config's core.filemode may be set to true meaning that a change in the files' permissions would result in a modified file. Less plausible since it requires more explicit intervention, but still possible.

On the right side is a gear icon. If you click it, either "Ignore Whitespace" or "Show Whitespace" will be checked. Which is it?

See the below image, 

Files are on "Unstage files", no differences whatsoever. Winmerge confirms it as identical
