--------------------------------
Summary: cordova creates shared /tmp/git directory that's only
writable by current user
Key: CB-10993
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10993
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: CLI
Affects Versions: 6.0.0
Reporter: Jacob Weber
Priority: Minor
I have a Linux machine where multiple users run cordova. They use a project
whose config.xml has a plugin specifies a particular revision:
{code}
<plugin name="cordova-plugin-statusbar"
spec="https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-statusbar#244eb71"; />
{code}
When they {{cordova prepare}} the project, it ends up calling
{{/usr/local/lib/node_modules/cordova/node_modules/cordova-lib/src/gitclone.js}},
which creates a directory {{/tmp/git}}.
But the directory is only writable by the current user. So when the next user
runs it, they get an error:
{code}
[exec] Fetching plugin "https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-statusbar";
via git clone
[exec] shell.js: internal error
[exec] Error: EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/tmp/git/1459363203511'

{code}
This could be solved by using a temporary directory within the user's home
directory, or by making {{/tmp/git}} world-writable.
