I'm observing a situation where Git Bash (MinGW) is showing different contents for a particular file than everything else on the system.
In the image you can see that the file elasticsearch.yml
has the same MD5 hash in the command prompt and in Cygwin, but under MinGW the contents are different. If I copy the file using the command prompt it has the correct, original hash, but if I copy it using MinGW the new copy has the same contents as the phantom MinGW version.
What is causing this phenomenon, and how can I solve it?
I'm running Windows Server 2012, 64 bit, and MinGW from Git version 1.9.5.msysgit.1
