Issues with sharing repository between linux and windows

I am sharing my repository between my linux and windows machine and pushed some permission changes on my linux machine.

Now my windows machine says I'm up-to-date when doing this:

git fetch -all
git reset --hard origin/master
git pull

yet when I attempt to do the following:

git checkout dev

It suddenly tells me I have local changes, which just so happen to be the same files of which I modified the permissions on my linux machine.

What is the right way of dealing with this? I made those permission changes so I don't have to manually use chmod every time I pull on my linux machine.

Try setting core.fileMode to false on Windows, then the executable bit is ignored for the windows repo.
