@mfunk I am not sure if there was an issue for this, but I know you saw this when we were working together last week.

If you open the top level folder (solutions-geoprocessing-toolbox) ArcGIS seems to index those GDBs and add/change those files, so there are real file changes.

We could add those gdb folders to .gitignore - but it would mean you wouldn't be able to easily update them so just need to pick the lessor of these 2 evils.

@topowright @csmoore Something to investigate further... WHY are they changing, and why others are NOT changing? Something specific to MAoW geodatabase? That weirdness has gone on for a while so let's keep this issue until we can figure it out.

@mfunk sounds good.
