Matthew, I do not know if you are still using the git-cvsserver, but
it seems that the only substantial change to that subsystem between
the 1.8.1.x and 1.8.3.x is your update.
Especially 2c3af7e7 (cvsserver: factor out git-log parsing logic,
2012-10-13) looks interesting. It has a hunk like this:
- my $git_perms = "";
- $git_perms .= "r" if ( $mode & 4 );
- $git_perms .= "w" if ( $mode & 2 );
- $git_perms .= "x" if ( $mode & 1 );
- $git_perms = "rw" if ( $git_perms eq "" );
+ my $dbMode = convertToDbMode($mode);
with the definition of convertToDbMode being:
+sub convertToDbMode
+{
+ my $mode = shift;
+ ...
+ $mode=~/^\d\d(\d)\d{3}$/;
+ my $userBits=$1;
+
+ my $dbMode = "";
+ $dbMode .= "r" if ( $userBits & 4 );
+ $dbMode .= "w" if ( $userBits & 2 );
+ $dbMode .= "x" if ( $userBits & 1 );
+ $dbMode = "rw" if ( $dbMode eq "" );
+
+ return $dbMode;
The $mode in the caller comes from diff-tree output (the post-change
side of the mode string, like "100755").
Picking the third digit from the left (i.e. "10'0'755"), instead of
the tail digit (i.e. "10075'5'"), looks strange.
Side note: now I look at it, the original does not make much sense
for that matter. "100755" & 4 is different from oct("100755") & 4.
