Tried to save a file in Kate.  It had tried to warn me that I was saving "over" a changed file (which I guess is true, because I switched git branches, but i was okay with that).

Instead of having that warning, or having my file saved, I was greeted with a coredump.

I will keep the coredump file around if it will help.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a file versioned in a Git repository using Kate.
2. Switch branches, or git stash then git stash pop.
3. Click Save.
4. Be unlucky.

Actual Results:  
Kate crashed in KNotification::flags, with the backtrace shown above.

Expected Results:  
A warning should be shown that the file has changed on disk and a confirmation that I want to overwrite the file.
