I am just setting up a CVS repository and having a problem with the
set-user-id bit. According to the man page:
"Directories with the set-user-id bit set will force all files and
sub-directories created in them to be owned by the directory owner and not by
the uid of the creating process."
Is this bit supported on HFS+?, because it does not seem to work. I have set
my cvsrep directory to chmod 4755 and owned by admin. Now if I understand
correctly, if another user creates a file or sub-directory beneath cvsrep
then it too should be owned by admin. This is not what I am seeing, the file
is created with the normal users permissions.
Any ideas.
Mike.
