Set execution bit on Windows

Patrick Lehmann 3 weeks ago updated by Thomas Singer 3 weeks ago 3

In previous versions, SmartGit allowed setting the x-bit (execution bit in chmod) via GUI. E.g. in a right-click menu on *.sh files. This menu entry on Windows seems to be missing since a few versions or the condition to display the menu entry is just sporadically true.

I remember a "Set execution bit" command in the context menu.
Is this option dependent on the file type / extension?

That's my current context menu:

Hi Patrick, at https://docs.syntevo.com/SmartGit/Latest/Manual/GUI/Preferences/Tools you can find links to download default tools that re-add this functionality as external tool.

Hi Thomas,

when was this feature removed?

I have a SmartGit 25.1 version, where it's still present:

I think, with 22.1 this default tool had been removed. Maybe you have it in this SmartGit instance because it was upgraded from an older version, or because this tool had been imported from the above website.
