Question

I have a bash script (.sh file) and a Python script (.py) file in the same directory. Both have the svn:executable permission. However when I do an ‘svn update’, only the Bash script gets executable permission set.

Any ideas why? (If I manually set the permission on the Python script it runs fine.)

DOH! Turns out I had a typo. It had the property ‘sv:executable’ (missing n). discovered with loentar’s propget/propset.

Is command:

svn propget svn:executable script.py

outputs “*” ?

if not, use this:

svn propset svn:executable '*' script.py
