Hi all,
I just installed cygwin on my Windows 8.1 laptop and I found that
the result of ls -l is like this:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 Theodore None 0 Nov 8 22:44 a
And I fond that I am in several groups
$ groups Theodore
Theodore : None root Performance Log Users
This raise my curiosity because when I use git, I got some error.
Then I read this:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9561759/why-cannot-chmod-in-cygwin-on-windows-8-cp
I wonder why I need to use chgrp to make it right? Is this a bug?
No. It's Windows (same difference? ;-) ). See:
