Subject: permissions of main folder for git-manpages.tar.gz
Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2020 11:56:47 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cc8487b0-c23f-46c3-b8c3-e3188b7c0d0e@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I am using https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/git-manpages-2.28.0.tar.gz to get the manpages part of git.

There has been a change in the permissions of the top-level folder, from 2.22 (perms 2750) to 2.25 (perms 0700) to 2.28 (perms 2700).
However, the permissions of other files/directories allow group/others read/execute, as before.

This change broke my latest installations by preventing group members to see manpages (I did a chmod to fix that).

Just sharing this observation, in case the change was not intentional.
