Thanks,Nobuyoshi. I wondered that also. However, If so, the behavior is different from ruby 2.1.1's document. Also, :preserve=>true or :perserve=>false makes no difference. Is it expected? ---------------------------------------- Bug #9748: FileUtils.cp always preserve the permission of original files https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9748#change-46239 * Author: Wei Hu * Status: Rejected * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: * Target version: * ruby -v: ruby 2.1.1p76 (2014-02-24 revision 45161) [x86_64-linux] * Backport: 2.0.0: UNKNOWN, 2.1: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- `FileUtils.cp` will always preserve the permission of original files even if we passed `:preserve=>false`. I think the problem is because: ~~~diff < File.open(dest, 'wb') do |f| --- > File.open(dest, 'wb', s.stat.mode) do |f| ~~~ -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
