[TxMt] Re: TM2: SCM button and Go -> SCM Status

[Anthony Underwood]

OK. I understand now. My folder was located on a remote server location
mounted over ssh via MacFuse.
However have just found that copying over the directory (a rails app) which
includes .git directory to a local HFS+ drive that the problem still
persists.

Still a bit stumped.
