Sorry for late answer.
chmod prevents changing group and others permission.
I'm planning to use svn for /etc/ backup.
Is there any way to tell svn to leave premissions as they are?
Is umask 777 only option?
best regards, sebastijan

Hello
I'm using Fedora. Until subversion-1.6.18-1 everything was OK.
From version 1.7.8-1 I have following problem:
# touch testfile
# ls -la testfile
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 Mar 21 02:49 testfile
# chmod 600 testfile
# svn add testfile
# ls -la testfile
-rw-------. 1 root root 0 Mar 21 02:49 testfile
# svn -m '' ci
# ls -la testfile
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 Mar 21 02:49 testfile
I don't think, that's OK.
I was searching on the net, how to preserve permissions, but didn't find
anything.
Is any option, to leave permissions as they are while svn commit?
with */strace svn -m '' ci/* I can see 'chmod 644'
best regards, sebastijan
