Instead of just --chmod, you probably want --file-chmod and --dir-chmod as well. The logic can get hairy, but there definitely should be a distinction, so we don't end up making files executable unnecessarily. --chmod should override the other two, I think, rather than trying to overlay permissions. That would simplify the logic.
