Christopher Tubbs commented on MASSEMBLY-941:
---------------------------------------------
I'm just going to ping this one once again, as I'm updating to the latest
Apache parent POM (27), and maven-assembly-plugin is now upgraded to 3.4.1 with
that, and this is still broken. So, we're still stuck on 3.1.1, the last
version where file permissions were preserved correctly by this plugin.
> file permissions removed during assembly:single since 3.2.0

> Key: MASSEMBLY-941
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MASSEMBLY-941
> Project: Maven Assembly Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: permissions
> Affects Versions: 3.2.0, 3.3.0
> Reporter: Christopher Tubbs
> Priority: Critical
>
> Since 3.2.0, existing file permissions seem to be ignored when creating a
> tarball assembly, and files stored in the assembly do not have their original
> file permissions preserved.
> Using version 3.1.1 of this plugin and earlier, when creating a tar.gz,
> existing file permissions are normally preserved. This is now broken in
> 3.2.0, unless the component descriptor explicitly sets the fileModes.
> This was discovered trying to prepare a release candidate for Apache Accumulo
> using the apache-23.pom parent POM's predefined `source-release-tar`
> descriptor using the `single` goal. We noticed that the resulting
> source-release tarball had stripped all the executable permissions from our
> scripts, instead of preserving them. This makes the resulting source release
> more difficult to build from source.
> A source-release assembly, and any other assembly that does not specify the
> file permissions explicitly, should preserve the existing file permissions,
> just as it used to with 3.1.1 and earlier.
