NAME

6       shtool fixperm - GNU shtool file permission fixing command
7

SYNOPSIS

9       shtool fixperm [-v|--verbose] [-t|--trace] path [path ...]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       shtool fixperm fixes file permissions inside a source tree under path
13       by cleaning up the permission bits. It determines the cleaned up
14       permission from the already set bits. It is intended to be run before a
15       tarball is rolled (usually with shtool tarball) out of a source tree.
16       The trick is that this is more convenient than having to set the
17       permissions manually or by using a large file list.
