Look in the schema file. You see this line?

# DO NOT MODIFY THIS OR ANYTHING ABOVE! md5sum: XXXXXXXX

it means that you modified that line or something above it...

If you didn't change anything above that line then...

I don't use git, but I did a quick check and there are problems with  
git and newlines under Windows. You're using Windows, right? Perhaps  
git is rewriting the newline characters between Unix and Windows  
formats. I'm pretty sure that the md5sum takes into account the  
newlines as well as the text. You would need to make git leave the  
newlines alone (the opposite of what the web page I'm linking to below  
says):

If it's not git, perhaps there's some other utility you're using to  
transfer files that's changing the newlines.
