Summary: --fake-super should set real file u+x if source is
executable
Product: rsync
Version: 3.1.0
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P3
Component: core
AssignedTo: way...@samba.org
ReportedBy: m...@mattmccutchen.net
QAContact: rsync...@samba.org
The --fake-super mode should set u+x on the real file if the source file is
executable. This would be consistent with Linux permission checking for the
real superuser:

Test case (run as non-root):
touch file
chmod 401 file
rsync-dev -a -M--fake-super file file2
if [ -x file2 ]; then echo "PASS"; else echo "FAIL"; fi
