Why does the owner or group get carried over to the next copy statement
executed? I briefly looked at the code, it looks like it saves the uid
and gid. So it was intentionally as far as I can tell.
I can't for the life of my figure out why we would want this. I am
going to be forced to explicitly set ownership for every copy statement
I have. Geehz! Can someone explain why this is here?
There was the thought of having a template for copy statements
template:
root_executable
owner=root
group=root
mode=0755
server=$(server)
copy:
/var/tmp/somefile/
dest=/var/tmp/somefile
template=root_executable
This seems like a good idea.
