I've noticed that on windows 7, even if we protect a folder by selecting "delete - Deny" in permissions, cygwin doesn't care and it allows to continue with rm. I think this is not good. I can think of other ways like creating a lock file in my scripts but that wont be a clean way. Isn't there any way that i can set some level of protection in NTFS without too much of fuss. I need to write to files and folder underneath but only want to deny delete permission on that top folder.
