http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28320 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-05-30 00:43 ------- Hi guys, Even if we can't preserve full unix permissions, It would still be useful to be able to preserve just the read-only status of files copied by the <copy> task. Java can do this much, and it's something my project found very handy (I did a quick change to ant - FileUtils and Copy are all that's changed). We use an ant script (exec'ed by an eclipse external task) to synchronise each desktop development area with a source baseline, and by preserving the read-only status on the copied files we can hamper accidental changes to files which haven't been explicitly write-abled. The developers like it. Is this worth adding to the standard build? It's a simple change, and I'm sure there are people who'd find it useful.
