fuse: Set permissions from UNIX mode when available (2.52 KB, patch)
2014-04-10 20:37 UTC, Ross Lagerwall 		committed Details | Review

Description Ross Lagerwall 2014-04-10 20:35:08 UTC 
Some programs (eg vim) create a new file based on an existing file's permissions when saving. Because the fuse daemon only set's the owner's permissions, editing a file over sftp using vim makes it save with 0600 permissions, which is annoying.

fuse: Set permissions from UNIX mode when available

If the GFileInfo has a UNIX mode available, use that for setting
permissions.  This prevents programs like vim from losing permissions
when saving a file.
