Hi Peter,
The remote repository server is Linux based.  It's maintained by a
different group, so I don't have access to their git config file.  I think
at this point I will revert the merge and do as you suggest: simply find
the file name diffs - easy enough to do with 'find'.  Thanks.

Maybe I will file a bug in Jira as John suggested (would be my first in the
new bug tracking system :-)
