I some (unclear to me how) why, a file containing $Id: ....$ was committed
to the git repository - is should have been stripped to $Id$. When checking
for changes, the file in your working copy is stripped (and thus contains
$Id$ according to the diff instead of $Id: ...$). This is then compared to
the git copy that does contain $Id: ....$, leading to a broken working copy.

I fixed it in:
