你如何使用git-cache-meta？

Question

I want keep directories' permissions in a git repository. It seems that one easy way is using git-cache-meta . What is an example and a minimal explanation of its use?

Answer 1

If you're referring to this implementation of git-cache-meta , then all you need to do is make sure the script is in your $PATH (put it in /usr/local/bin/ or similar) and go to repo you want, then run:

$ git-cache-meta --store

That will store the meta data in a file named .git_cache_meta in the rep. Then on another instance of the repo, run:

$ git-cache-meta --apply
