After upgrading to Cygwin 1.3.17, I noticed the following change in ls
-l output:
$ ls -ld /
drwxrwxr-x+ 15 Administ Administ 4096 Oct 21 12:07 /
^
*
If I temporarily downgrade to Cygwin 1.3.16, ls -l outputs the
following:
$ ls -ld /
drwxrwxr-x 15 Administ Administ 4096 Oct 21 12:07 /
I found the following in ls's info:
`-l'
`--format=long'
`--format=verbose'
...
Following the permission bits is a single character that
specifies whether an alternate access method applies to the
file. When that character is a space, there is no alternate
access method. When it is a printing character (e.g., `+'),
then there is such a method.
Was this change intentional? Or, was it a side effect of the following?
