Public bug reported: I created a new shell script in geany and saved it. Then I set the executable bits for user, group, other (rwxr-xr-x) for the file. After running it I changed some details in geany and tried again to run the script. Suddenly the execution rights were gone. I tried several times. Whenever I save the file from within geany, the executable bits are set to not executable.
