NAME¶
shtool-fixperm -
GNU shtool file permission fixing command
SYNOPSIS¶
shtool fixperm [
-v|
--verbose] [
-t|
--trace]
path [
path ...]
DESCRIPTION¶
shtool fixperm fixes file permissions inside a source tree under
path by cleaning up the permission bits. It determines the cleaned up
permission from the already set bits. It is intended to be run before a
tarball is rolled (usually with
shtool tarball) out of a source tree.
The trick is that this is more convenient than having to set the permissions
manually or by using a large file list.
OPTIONS¶
The following command line options are available.
- -v, --verbose
- Display some processing information.
- -t, --trace
- Enable the output of the essential shell commands which are executed.
EXAMPLE¶
# Makefile.in
dist:
shtool fixperm -v *
...
HISTORY¶
The
GNU shtool fixperm command was originally written by Ralf S.

later taken over into
GNU shtool.
