v3 -> v4 exechook-command permission error
mimseong opened this issue · 5 comments
Hello.
I'm in the process of raising my version from 3 to 4 and have noticed a permission error. Everything else works fine, but when I run shell script with exechook-command
it says permission denied. I thought group-write
would work like change-permissions=0744
. So I'm wondering if there's bug or I'm mis-using git-sync.

First, thank you for a complete repro, including a public repo.
This does seem to be a use-case that is not covered by --group-write
that your use of --change-permissions
allowed. In the repo, the hello.sh
script is not executable. Setting --change-permissions
to 0744 is unusual because it sets the u+x
bit but no other x bits. So the script became executable. This is different from how most people tried to use that flag (which was to change group permissions - hence it became --group-write
).
So the question then is how best to fix this. The easiest and most correct fix would be for you to make the file executable and for me to document this as a change. I suspect there's not a lot of people doing this. The more comprehensive fix would be to bring back some form of change-permissions flag. I didn' much like that old flag because it was too broad, but it did cover this specific case.
I'm leaning towards "please change your repo", but would like ot hear counter-arguments. I'll have a think about how to expose this.
Thank you for letting me know. I want to include the code and shell script in the repository, and perform post-processing with a shell script after syncing with the repository. It seems like '--group-write' won't work for this use case, so I'll explore other methods.
Fundamentally you are trying to execute a file (your script) which is not executable. You can make it executable and check it in. Then git-sync should work.
Did this solution work for you?
Thanks a lot! I've converted it to 'hello.out' as an executable, and it works well. Now I'll update it to version 4. 👍
