RE: [Subclipse-users] Changing File attributes

Hi James,

        Just to emphasize, as Mark said, there is a way to make Subversion set "Execute" for your files with the "svn:executable"
property. Only thing is that you have to set it manually.

        Looks like it would be nice if the Subversion client on Unix would detect the attribute and set that property automatically
for you, wouldn't it?

Best regards,
        Felipe
