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: https://github.com/wikimedia/pywikibot-compat/commit/dfff975cabec593af2ef4446693a436a72c6f660 Merlijn
