CHMOD in GIT

[IntelliTool]

Hey!
I'm using WinXP SP3 and git with http://www.heroku.com/

How can i set chmod 0777 to a specific file?
chmod 0777 foldername
is without effect, because windows won't accept octal chmod values..
Any ideas on that? :/

Windows doesn't give a shit about chmod.

[IntelliTool]

of course the remote server isn't running WinXP SP3.
But i can't change the local chmod (since windows isn't giving a fuck) and commit that change..
so how to change it at the remote server?

Well, have you checked this?

[IntelliTool]

No didn't knew that.. thanks.
Then I'll try to find another hoster..

What exactly do you want to do?

[IntelliTool]

since i didn't want to enter my credit card details @ heroku to get a mySql database, i was trying to implement a simple file-based database. (since i don't have much data to save anyways)

The Postgres Database is free (for Development) : https://postgres.heroku.com/blog/pas...elopment_plan/

Which language are you developing in ?

If I were you, I would have used PagodaBox.
