Problem updating Moodle via Git - files changed?

Moodle Version:  2.6.3+ (Build: 20140626)
OS:  RHEL 6.4 64-bit
PHP:  5.3.x (RHEL patched)

I recently tried to update a 2.6.x installation to the latest 2.6.x release using Git.  I had installed Moodle 2.6.3+ (Build: 20140626) using the Moodle doc "Git for Administrators", so I referred to that to do the update.  I went to do the "git pull", but I got an error message saying that a file had been changed.  However, when I did a "git diff" to check what was changed, it showed me that a lot of files had been changed, but that there were no changes to the data in the files.  I do not have the exact messages in front of me, so I think, but cannot confirm, that the "git diff" output mentioned the file modes.

I think that after doing the installation, I had read through some of the tips on Moodle Security.  I probably followed the particular section on file permissions.

Would changing file permissions affect the Git update process?  Has anyone else run into this and worked around it?
