iwienand reported a new issue against the project: `releng` that you are following:
``
Hello,
We rsync a Fedora mirror to a local AFS volume. When I added the F29 directories we
started getting
```
receiving incremental file list
rsync: failed to set permissions on
"/afs/.openstack.org/mirror/fedora/updates/29/.": Permission denied (13)
rsync: failed to set permissions on
"/afs/.openstack.org/mirror/fedora/updates/29/Everything": Permission denied
(13)
rsync: failed to set permissions on
"/afs/.openstack.org/mirror/fedora/updates/29/Everything/x86_64": Permission
denied (13)
rsync: failed to set permissions on
"/afs/.openstack.org/mirror/fedora/updates/29/Modular": Permission denied (13)
rsync: failed to set permissions on
"/afs/.openstack.org/mirror/fedora/updates/29/Modular
```
Quite bizarre and unhelpful; turns out on stracing the failing call is
```
3213 chmod(".", 02755 <unfinished ...>
```
On AFS, you need administrator permissions to setgid (02) which the mirror user
doesn't have. I tried on several different rsync mirrors and they all do the same, so
I'm assuming this comes from the master sync.
I can avoid this problem by dropping "-p" from our rsync command; however we
haven't (and don't) need this for any of the other fedora directories.
Could someone check if this has inadvertently been applied to the F29 directories
somehow?
Thanks
