Feature: support for file permissions
Hello, I think file permissions are really important for source code as well. For example, in web development, you want configuration files to be read only; specially if you're deploying with git. Also, you would want some executable file to not be writable ; but executable by world. Permission support would become really handy when using GIT_WORK_TREE on a bare repo. Please, consider supporting them. -- It's hard to be free... but I love to struggle. Love isn't asked for; it's just given. Respect isn't asked for; it's earned!

That is not _source code_; you are talking about deployed set of files, and as you said, Git is about source code and is not a tool for deployment. Please, consider supporting them. See the ancient discussion around this: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/375/focus=435 A short answer is that it is not likely to happen. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe git in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
