Eclipse EGit and git on command line show different status

In my git repository I can do git status and it tells me that everything is up to date:

[598] : git status
# On branch master
nothing to commit (working directory clean)

If I connect to the repository with EGit and do a synchronize in Eclipse I get:

enter image description here

Somehow EGit thinks that a lot of files have been removed and readded witht the same name. Since git status returns nothing to commit I expect to get an empty window here.

For completeness: This is on OSX 10.7 but I've seen the same problem on Window 7 Pro as well.

Any ideas what's going on here?

You are using non 7-bit character here (the umlaut o). Sorry, this is known to cause trouble.

You have to recode the tree for utf8 filename. Even if you do this, this is not bug free.

See this question for git part, and this bug for egit part.
