Using latest version of cygwin64 in Windows 10. I have managed to get a directory foo
that has something strange about its permissions. I'm not quite sure how this happened but here are the symptoms:
$ cd /f/temp/foo
$ ls -lad .
drwxrwx---+ 1 Mm None 0 Jun 16 14:03 .
$ mkdir bar
$ ls -lad bar
d---rwx---+ 1 Mm None 0 Jun 16 14:17 .
$ cd bar
Permission denied
$ umask
0022
This doesn't happen for other directories, e.g. /f/temp/ok
. Using ls
switches I cannot see any difference between f/temp/ok
and /f/temp/foo
.
If I do chmod 775 bar
then I can enter bar
, but then making a directory under bar
has the same problem. So this problem is stopping me doing git init
in /f/temp/foo
. Doing chown -R Mm *
in the parent makes no difference.
My question is: What is causing this problem and what is the proper fix?
There are some differences visible with icacls
but I'm not sure how to interpret them:
$ cd /f/temp
$ icacls ok >ok.txt
$ icacls foo >foo.txt
$ diff -b ok.txt foo.txt

< ok NULL SID:(DENY)(Rc,S,REA,WEA,X,DC)
---
> foo NULL SID:(DENY)(Rc,S,REA,WEA,X,DC)

< DESKTOP-AO2AIEC\None:(RX)
---
> DESKTOP-AO2AIEC\None:(Rc,S,RA)

< Everyone:(RX)
---
> Everyone:(Rc,S,RA)

I have got a workaround for now: make another directory under /f/temp
, then use cp -r
to copy all the files out of foo
into the new directory, then delete foo
and rename the new directory. If I use cp -a
instead of cp -r
the problem persists.
