rsync - Mar 2006 - DO NOT REPLY [Bug 3596] New: rsync fails to retouch S_IWUSR when transferring a single empty directory

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3596

           Summary: rsync fails to retouch S_IWUSR when transferring a
                    single empty directory
           Product: rsync
           Version: 2.6.7
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: wayned@samba.org
        ReportedBy: hashproduct@verizon.net
         QAContact: rsync-qa@samba.org


Run the following in an empty directory:
    mkdir test
    chmod 400 test
    rsync --dirs --perms test test2
test2 incorrectly ends up with 600 permissions because rsync sees that a local
name is in use and assumes the directory retouching phase is unnecessary. 
rsync should run the phase anyway and deal with a local name if there is one.

Created an attachment (id=1781)

Fixes the bug by running directory retouching even when there's a local name

------- Comment #2 from wayned@samba.org  2006-03-10 10:00 MST -------
I decided to fix this by preventing a local_name transfer from tweaking the
directory's permissions in the first place (since there's no need for it
to
have write permission if nothing is going inside it).

The fix is now in CVS.  Thanks!
