Václav Haisman created MASSEMBLY-922:
----------------------------------------
Summary: allow to override UID/GID and user name and group name
for files stored in TAR (and other formats that store UID/GID)
Key: MASSEMBLY-922
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MASSEMBLY-922
Project: Maven Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: Wish
Reporter: Václav Haisman
Attachments: override-uid-gid.patch
I have noticed that Plexus Archiver 4.2.0 in SNAPSHOT version has grown
methods like `org.codehaus.plexus.archiver.Archiver#setOverrideUid`. It
seems that after it is released it should be possible implement Maven
Assembly Plugin extension that would allow to use these methods to set,
e.g., TAR archive owner/group entries to some reasonable value even on
Windows.
I am attaching unfinished untested patch that I tried to explore the
possibility.
