Unfortunately, I was too busy last days, so I could check it tonight
only. Your traces show, that there was an error in returning file
modes of "/sudo:address@hidden:/home/git/etc/gitweb.conf".

Does it still happen? If yes, could you, please, enable traces like this:

(require 'tramp)
(require 'trace)
(dolist (elt (all-completions "tramp-" obarray 'functionp))
  (trace-function-background (intern elt)))
(untrace-function 'tramp-read-passwd)
(untrace-function 'tramp-gw-basic-authentication)

Afterwards, please evaluate

(file-modes "/sudo:address@hidden:/home/git/etc/gitweb.conf")

and send the resulting buffer *trace-output*.

Best regards, Michael.
