User unable to edit files after repo pull ( Windows + Intellij)

[varaprasad56]

Hi Folks, I am currently using Intellij Ultimate Edition 20.2.2 on Windows 10. I am using Cygwin version 3.2.0 and I have installed zip,unzip,rsync,curl packages. Windows users are facing a serious obstacle before making this tool work on their machine, the user is unable to delete the files and edit them. I think the problem is with the cygwin ,due to permissions for the files being created. I have attached the screen shot of the issue user is facing. Please find more about the issue here. https://blog.dhampir.no/content/forcing-cygwin-to-create-sane-permissions-on-windows The solution is to change one line in

C:\cygwin64\etc\fstab

adding noacl to the below statement. none /cygdrive cygdrive binary,noacl,posix=0,user 0 0

Could you please do something to overcome the issue, as not everyone has enough time and patience to fix this manually.

Thanks in advance, Vara Prasad
