["Herve Boutemy (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MASSEMBLY-941?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17612461#comment-17612461 ] 

Herve Boutemy commented on MASSEMBLY-941:
-----------------------------------------

if the issue was introduced in MASSEMBLY-921, it was not intentional: as written in issue description, it was about order and timestamp, not permissions
perhaps there was some permissions changes included that I was not aware of

we'll need to find where the change was done

>             Project: Maven Assembly Plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: permissions
>    Affects Versions: 3.2.0, 3.3.0
>            Reporter: Christopher Tubbs
>            Priority: Critical

> Since 3.2.0, existing file permissions seem to be ignored when creating a tarball assembly, and files stored in the assembly do not have their original file permissions preserved.
> Using version 3.1.1 of this plugin and earlier, when creating a tar.gz, existing file permissions are normally preserved. This is now broken in 3.2.0, unless the component descriptor explicitly sets the fileModes.
> This was discovered trying to prepare a release candidate for Apache Accumulo using the apache-23.pom parent POM's predefined `source-release-tar` descriptor using the `single` goal. We noticed that the resulting source-release tarball had stripped all the executable permissions from our scripts, instead of preserving them. This makes the resulting source release more difficult to build from source.
> A source-release assembly, and any other assembly that does not specify the file permissions explicitly, should preserve the existing file permissions, just as it used to with 3.1.1 and earlier.
