Re: Executable bit set on Linux server from Windows client

[Gurmit Teotia]

Hi Pierre,
I do not know if you can set it from windows client. I think it is not
possible as Windows does not have the concept of executable bit. If you
checking something from Linux machine the CVS server preserve the executable
bits.
If you have checked-in the source from Windows client I suggest that after
check-in, login to Linux server and execute the "chmod" directly on CVS
files. It does not have any side effect on CVS files.

Just a thought....

Thanks,
Gurmit
