- Subject: File mode judgement
In the past, Cygwin seemed to judge whether a file is executable on a
combination of suffix and content. However, today when I reinstalled Cygwin,
I suddenly found that it no more did it. Now on a NTFS volume it depends
only on file attributes.
1) Is it a design change?
2) Is it possible to switch back to the old behaviour?
Thank you in advance. Reply to this mail address, please.
Best regards
