isnt that just the color for this color theme
no, the filenames are normally white
now that I think about it my question is kinda pointless bc people use different color themes
hmmm
but generally this color only shows up when I modify a file, then it becomes yellowish like above
tried that
Probably changed all line feeds from \n to \r\n but git says there is nothing to commit because you have autocrlf activated in git config.
yeah that solved the problem

thanks bro
Wow, that was just a wild guess.
it's weird cause I'm using intellij on windows but I commit changes in a wsl terminal
so probably that's why
the other possibilities would be charsets, the execute bit/metadata and maybe other invisible characters (e.g. tabs vs spaces), there weren't too many ways this could have been wrong lol
But tabs vs. spaces should have been shown in diff when you are not ignoring whitespace. For line feeds I have seen it though that there were no diffs shown despite them being different.
yea easiest to check in the commit window
