Description Micodat Computer 2005-10-07 14:02:32 UTC
I think there is a bug in the coreutils.

New files created by "mv2 do not inherit their parent directory's default ACL
entries (if any), but retain their original ACLs. The "cp" command works fine.
Comment 1 Andreas Gruenbacher 2005-10-14 13:53:52 UTC
The mv command conceptually moves filesystem objects, and doesn't create new 
objects. Thus default acls are not inherited, just as the umask has no effect. 
This behavior is by design.
