file-permissions

I have a bare git repository setup for user fred : /home/fred/foo.git I have set the group of every file in foo.git to bar : $ chown -R fred:bar /home/fred/foo.git (Note that fred is not a member of group bar ) And I have set the setgid bit on for every directory in foo.git : $ find foo.git -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chmod g+s However when fred commits to the git repository, the group is not preserved in some files. Specifically in the objects directory I see: foo.git/objects: drwxrws--- 46 fred bar 4096 Apr 7 23:43 . drwxrws--- 7 fred bar 4096 Apr 6 17:12 .. drwxrws--- 2 fred bar 4096 Apr 6

I have written an Android app which runs on a custom kernel on Android 4.4 Kitkat device, which uses the Android Serial Port API ( https://code.google.com/p/android-serialport-api/ ) in order to open the serial port "/dev/ttyACM0" which is the port associated with my serial device. The port has the proper "666" permissions (crw-rw-rw), and the app itself even has the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" permission. However, even though the permissions appear correct, when my app tries to open said serial port using the library, it fails. In my java code, if I try to do a "device.canWrite()" it returns

I am using gitolite git server on a ubuntu linux server. I used a hook that will be called on every push and will update a server's directory(which include live site's source code). Now, whenever I change something on my local pc and push the changes to server, the hook is being called and the pull request are being executed fine. But, problem is, the files which were updated, are now having changed permission. Like: rwxrwxr_x (before) rwx_____x (After) After few searches, I did came up with this solution . I did tried it with both my global git config and repository specific config settings.

I want to list files and directories under "/proc" in Android. When running as my application process, many files are not readable. If I list the directory as the shell user I get the following output: shell@flounder:/ $ whoami shell shell@flounder:/ $ /system/bin/toolbox ls -l /proc dr-xr-xr-x root root 2015-09-12 03:30 1 dr-xr-xr-x root root 2015-09-12 03:31 10 dr-xr-xr-x root root 2015-09-12 03:31 101 dr-xr-xr-x shell shell 2015-09-15 03:24 10196 dr-xr-xr-x root root 2015-09-12 03:31 102 dr-xr-xr-x root root 2015-09-12 03:31 103 dr-xr-xr-x root root 2015-09-12 03:31 104 dr-xr-xr-x u0_a15 u0

Today I noticed that whenever I upload a file through my Django site the file is uploaded with the file permissions 0600 meaning whenever a non root user wants to view the file (nginx) a 403 is shown. This only started happening today from what I can tell. I have checked both the file_upload_permissions and file_upload_directory_permissions in the Django settings file and they are both set to 0644. I haven't done any Linux/Django updates recently so that shouldn't be the cause, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Sam If you have recently switched to Python 3, please take a look at

I want to change some folder permissions (set to Read-Only) to ReadWriteExecute! I wrote this code, but the folder permission is still Read-Only: private void ChangePermissions(string folder) { string userName = Environment.UserName; FileSystemAccessRule accessRule = new FileSystemAccessRule(userName, FileSystemRights.FullControl, InheritanceFlags.ContainerInherit | InheritanceFlags.ObjectInherit, PropagationFlags.None, AccessControlType.Allow); DirectoryInfo directoryInfo = new DirectoryInfo(folder); DirectorySecurity directorySec = directoryInfo.GetAccessControl(); directorySec.AddAccessRule

I am the only person involved with this git project. Every time I edit files at my local Ubuntu repository, then push to Bitbucket and pull to my production repository, git changes the edited files to -rwxrwxr-x 775. Apache doesn't like this. Local system: git version 1.8.1.2 on Ubuntu Linux Production system: git version 1.7.12 on CentOS/Red Hat Linux When I fix permissions to 755, then do git diff or git diff -p It shows nothing. At my local repository, the permissions are 755 and the files are all owned by haws. At my production repository, all other permissions stay at 755, and all files
