Follow-up Comment #5, sr#111001 (group administration): TTBOMK, the executable attribute in the repository is set during the first commit and then persists.
In my working copy, I can chmod -x file, and the file will be non-executable until I rm file; cvs up file---and then the executable bit is fetched from the repository again. Likewise, that bit is set when checking out a fresh working copy. Removing and re-adding file doesn't help, like mv file{,~}; cvs rm file; cvs ci -m'removing' file; mv file{~,}; chmod -x file; cvs add file; cvs ci -m're-adding' file So it looks like in Savannah environment only Savannah admins can reset those bits, like chmod -x file,v; but it makes little sense to do that if other such files be added subsequently. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.nongnu.org/support/?111001> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.nongnu.org/
