I just started using git to maintain some of my server config files. Leagues better than subversion, which I was previously using, but git still suffers from a key problem that subversion also has: lack of permission preservation.
I understand that versioning permissions might be a big request, but what about simply storing the permissions at 'git add' time, to be used at checkout time?
Right now I have to do 'git pull ; ./fix-perms' each time I update. Jeff - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
