NAME

tix-execpatch — apply executable permissions per the execpatch

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

tix-execpatch updates the executable permissions in the working directory per an execpatch produced by tix-execdiff(8). The execpatch is checked for validity and absolute paths and paths containing ‘..’ components are rejected. The executable permissions are updated per the umask.

The options are as follows:

--check

Check only the execpatch is valid and don't update any permissions.

--directory=directory

Apply permission changes inside directory instead of the working directory.

EXIT STATUS

tix-execpatch will exit 0 on success and non-zero otherwise.
