[PATCH] Documentation: update tar.umask default

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As noted by Mike Hommey, the documentation for the config setting tar.umask
is not up-to-date.  Commit f08b3b0e2e9ad87767d80ff03b013c686e08ba4b changed
the default from 0 to 2; this patch finally documents it.
