If you need the permissions or ownership on the file to be different, you can do that by using a script to copy the files into another location with the proper permissions or ownership instead of using the copies in the repository. For example, I do this with my dotfiles such that the files have the correct permissions. -- brian m. carlson (he/him or they/them) Toronto, Ontario, CA
