From 439296501d544251a9a5d9b117ea3d29b7dbe559 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnout Vandecappelle Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2015 13:36:28 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] CHANGES: add release note for the permissions Since the rsync of skeleton or rootfs now changes the permissions of the copied files and directories, this may break existing setups that rely on these permissions being kept. So add a release note explaining how it should be done.
