Geoff, Currently, mklog resets the permissions on a patch file: ... $ touch tmp.patch $ ls -la tmp.patch -rw-rw-r-- 1 vries vries 0 mei 31 09:17 tmp.patch $ ./contrib/mklog tmp.patch $ ls -la tmp.patch -rw------- 1 vries vries 59 mei 31 09:17 tmp.patch $ ...
This patch fixes that: ... $ rm tmp.patch $ touch tmp.patch $ ls -la tmp.patch -rw-rw-r-- 1 vries vries 0 mei 31 09:41 tmp.patch $ ./contrib/mklog tmp.patch $ ls -la tmp.patch -rw-rw-r-- 1 vries vries 59 mei 31 09:41 tmp.patch ... OK for trunk? Thanks, - Tom
