On top of that, looking directly at permissions, git only tracks the
executable bit, so the only permissions that git knows of for regular
files is 755 and 644.

As a demonstration::

$ git ls-files
x
$ ls -l
-rw-r--r-- 1 wgiokas users 0 Jun  5 02:47 x
$ chmod u+x x
$ ls -l
-rwxr--r-- 1 wgiokas users 0 Jun  5 02:47 x
$ git diff
diff --git a/x b/x
old mode 100644
new mode 100755
