This is true. The unzip task doesn't do anything with permissions and the manual page even says so ,---- | File permissions will not be restored on extracted files. `---- > At http://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/zip.html I see there is an option > "preserve0permissions"... It is the zip task, not the unzip task. And it applies to permissions read from a different archive when you use the zip task to repackage/merge archives. Ant is capable of dealing with permissions inside ZIP and TAR archives but not on the file system. The latter isn't going to change until the tasks can run on NIO2 and Java7 because the Java File API currently simply doesn't provide the means we'd need.
