Bunled scripts file mode not preserved

[dskrvk]

I recently upgraded from v. 0.7.9 to 0.10.1 and faced an issue where a bunch of scripts stored under src/pack/ lost some of their "execute" flags after sbt pack copied them to the output directory. Specifically, the mode changed from 0775 to 0764. Is this done on purpose?

[xerial]

For bin folder files, sbt-pack adds +x, but for the other resource files, I think sbt-pack should preserve the file permission.

Which version of sbt are you using? sbt 0.13 or 1.1?

[xerial]

If this might be related sbt/io#76, using sbt 1.1 will resolve the problem.

[dskrvk]

I was on sbt 1.0.4, but switching to 1.1.0 and doing a clean pack produces the same result.

[xerial]

It looks like a bug of sbt-io, which calls setExecutable(true), which only sets x (executable) to the file owner. I'll file a bug ticket.

@dskrvk Are you saying that

1. the source files stored in src/pack/ has lost their permissions, or
2. the target files created by pack used to have 0755 under sbt 0.13, but now became 0764 in sbt 1.0.4?

[xerial]

At least sbt-pack 0.7.9 was using IO.copyDirectory (same with sbt-pack 0.10.1):

sbt-pack/src/main/scala/xerial/sbt/Pack.scala

Line 351 in 28c8b6f

IO.copyDirectory(from, to, overwrite = true, preserveLastModified = true)

[dskrvk]

@eed3si9n the 1st option. I would expect the original permissions to be preserved.
