Bug #1669: FileUtils.cp file mode
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/1669

Author: Alex Dircksen
Status: Open, Priority: Normal
Category: lib
ruby -v: ruby 1.9.1p129 (2009-05-12 revision 23412) [i686-linux]

Files created by FileUtils.cp (without :preserve => true argument) have the file mode 0600, which (in general) is neither the "default file mode" (according to umask) nor the file mode of the source file.

I guess this is a rather unexpected behavior and was different in Ruby 1.8.x (the destination file would have the same file mode as the source file) - is this intentional?

Tested on:

ruby 1.9.1p129 (2009-05-12 revision 23412) [i386-darwin9.7.0] (Mac OS X 10.5.7)
ruby 1.9.1p129 (2009-05-12 revision 23412) [i686-linux] (Gentoo Linux, Kernel 2.6.27.10)
