-----------------------------

Looks like this bug still exists, at least with subversion clients provided by Ubuntu 16.04 (same problem on Ubuntu 14.04 too). Can this be fixed?

> As discussed in this thread:
> http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2013-10/0095.shtml, subversion sets file
> permissions on files at commit.
> The file doesn't have svn:eol-style, svn:keywords or svn:needs-lock properties
> set, and subversion doesn't rewrite it (it has the same inode before and after
> the commit).
> So according to these and judging from this mail:
> http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2013-10/0180.shtml, I consider this a bug,
> which not only prevents one from maintaining file permissions and ownership in
> subversion properties (subversion will set the file to umask permissions on
> every commit), but this behaviour is not expected from the user, and can pose
> ill effects.
> Please remove this by deleting the chmod from the commit codepath (from a simple
> grep, it seems to be called from subversion/libsvn_subr/io.c, so I choose that
> subcomponent).
> I set "found in version" to 1.8.x, but I'm sure it's in 1.7, and not sure about
> earlier versions.
> Thanks.
