cpio in copy-pass mode aims to copy file permissions which causes this
problem and cannot be disabled. Be explicit by copying the directory
structure first, honouring the permissions at the destination, then copy
the files with their existing read-only permissions.
...
cd "$repo" &&
- find objects -depth -print | cpio $cpio_quiet_flag -pumd$l
"$GIT_DIR/" || \
+ # Create dirs using umask and permissions and destination
+ find objects -type d -print | (cd "$GIT_DIR" && xargs mkdir -p) &&
+ # Copy 0444 permissions on files
+ find objects -type f -print | cpio $cpio_quiet_flag -pumd$l
"$GIT_DIR/" || \
Wouldn't that be better:
find objects ! -type d -print | cpio ...
?
This was my first suggestion, unfortunately it shows up broken behaviour
in all but the latest version of cpio. It creates 0700 directory
permissions which is even worse.
I didn't find the later versions of cpio to be widespread, so I wrote the
patch to work in all cases.
See the thread 'git-clone file permissions and cpio'.
