title: How to stop git from making files non-executable on cygwin?
body: <p>I use git on Windows via cygwin and soon decided to use <code>filemode=false</code> (since otherwise I've got a lot of changes after the initial git clone). I'm definitely not interested in tracking permission at all, the only think I need is for some files to be executable. From time to time, I find that the <code>x</code> flag on some files gets lost and I strongly suppose it's because of git.</p>
  
  <p>I'd be happy with a solution allowing to execute <code>chmod a+x ...</code> when needed.</p>
