Well, it's simply that CVS always inherited the "x" bits from the file as initially checked in. Once there, those bits were "set into stone". As non-Posix systems don't know about those executable attributes, whatever maps from the non-Posix into the Posix environment appears to have a tendency to always set the "x" bits (which is IMHO a silly default: defaulting to non-x would be much better). Once committed that way, they then stay in CVS. SVN is better in that respect: it offers a separate svn:executable attribute that can be set per file. It's been an oversight of mine when importing the CVS tree into SVN to not remove the pointless "x" bits before, so the cvs2svn script created svn:executable attributes for all those files that did have the "x" already in CVS. Well, long story short, this commit was simply my test baloon for the new SVN repo. ;-) -- cheers, J"org .-.-. --... ...-- -.. .
