Hello, I have some working copies on Samba shares, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with all updates installed, which are accessed using TortoiseSVN 1.7.10 which uses Subversion 1.7.7. Some of those working copies contain executable Perl scripts with proper svn:executable defined as *, but depending on my Samba configuration the executable bit gets set or not. It only gets set if Smaba is configured to force specific permissions including the executable bit. If I checkout natively using a Subversion client on the shell the executable bits get properly applied.
Is the svn:executable property completely ignored on operations which are applied using Windows clients? I thought/hoped that Windows just ignores anything regarding svn:executable if it's done to itself but Samba could maybe recognize those permissions. This doesn't seem to be the case. If Windows clients ignore applying svn:executable, do you have any ideas on how I could configure Samba to just apply it on Perl scripts? The shares are pretty general and I don't want e.g. CSS files to have the executable bit set. The only solution I found was a cron job regularly finding and fixing Perl scripts as Samba doesn't seem to provide any file type filters. Thanks for any hints.
