Git doesn't show differences on modified file

There is a file, git st gets:

# On branch master
# Changes not staged for commit:
#   (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
#   (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
#
#   modified:   lib/ABC/Main.pm
#
no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")

git diff gets:

diff --git a/lib/ABC/Main.pm b/lib/ABC/Main.pm 
old mode 100755 new
mode 100644

git diff HEAD gets the same.

After adding file, git diff shows nothing.

git diff HEAD gets:

diff --git a/lib/ABC/Main.pm b/lib/ABC/Main.pm
old mode 100755
new mode 100644

How to show just differences from git diff rightly?

This is because the only changes to Main.pm are the file permissions. There are no differences in file content.
