Permissions for implicitly created directories in copy tasks

Help/Discuss

It seems like directories implicitly created within a child copyspec gets hardcoded permissions of 0755, instead of default permissions based on the process umask? Implicit directories created outside of child copyspecs gets default permissions. dirPermissions on the parent copyspec has no effect on
implicitly created target directories. We are using 8.14.2.

Example:

task example(type: Copy) {
  from 'ex1'
  into 'dest/dir
  into('child') {
    from 'ex2'
  }
}

given these ex1 and ex2 directories

drwxrwx--- ex1
-rw-rw---- ex1/foo
drwxrwx--- ex2
-rw-rw---- ex2/bar

then running
$ umask 0007
$ gradle example

results in

drwxrwx--- dest
drwxrwx--- dest/dir
-rw-rw---- dest/dir/foo
drwxr-xr-x dest/dir/child
-rw-rw---- dest/dir/child/bar

but we would expect default permissions based on the umask:

drwxrwx--- dest/dir/child/

or possibly hardcoded permissions for all implicitly created dirs:

drwxr-xr-x dest
drwxr-xr-x dest/dir
drwxr-xr-x dest/dir/child

dirPermissions does not seem to have an affect for the permission of the implicitly created dest/dir/child

We can work around this with an explicit file permission modification in a doLast. Are there any other options?

thanks,
