Is there a way/configuration setting to avoid directory permission problem in the following scenario:
git init repo
cd repo/
git-annex init
echo test > testfile
git-annex add testfile
cd ..
rm -rf repo/
This results in the following error:
rm: cannot remove 'repo/.git/annex/objects/w8/pv/SHA256E-s5--f2ca1bb6c7e907d06dafe4687e579fce76b37e4e93b7605022da52e6ccc26fd2/SHA256E-s5--f2ca1bb6c7e907d06dafe4687e579fce76b37e4e93b7605022da52e6ccc26fd2': Permission denied
The same problem is when the repository is moved to a different filesystem (mount point).
This fixes the problem:
find repo -type d -exec chmod 755 {} +
rm -rf repo/
But my question is: can git-annex do this automatically?
This happens to avoid it:
git config core.sharedRepository group
I do think that preventing accidental deletion, of what may be the only copy of the file, has probably saved some peoples' data though.
