Subject: Filemode change by windows applications
Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2018 08:16:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAFeO1eoW52-4S4gD0=YL7g1YKsjjn9Jk8twV22e57HmmKQc5vg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I notice that when I edit and save a file in a windows application this
file sometimes get the execute file permission set in cygwin. Some windows
applications do this and some don't. For instance in my setup if i modify a
.c file using Meld then the execute bit is set, however when I modify the
same file with sublime text 3 then the execute bit is not set.

Why does this happen? and is there anything I can do to prevent windows
applications from setting the execute bit on my files?
