The link you provided answers my question exactly as to why they did it this way, as files created within the Cygwin environment adhere to the expected permissions. I realize now that my problem is more the exception than the rule, as I use the Windows gVim due to the better integration, which creates files with incorrect permissions. It seems that the best solution would be stick to compiling it myself or perhaps investigate to see if I can tweak gVim so that it will save files with the correct permissions. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Distributed-Git-not-compiled-under-Cygwin--tp33047124p33049604.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
