[lmi-commits] [lmi] master 4b9e89f 1/4: Add commands to force correct permissions

[Greg Chicares]

branch: master
commit 4b9e89fde06fd216ecf3e33ad09b6d5a367af30a
Author: Gregory W. Chicares <address@hidden>
Commit: Gregory W. Chicares <address@hidden>

    Add commands to force correct permissions
    
    Cygwin and msw often incorrectly set execute permissions on files that
    should not be executable. When these incorrect permissions creep into
    the repository, correcting them is an unwelcome chore. Listed a set of
    commands that automate this cleanup.
