ACL support

[markfaine]

Can this handle ACLs as well as file/directory permissions? Looking at the .git-preserve-permissions file I don't see anything that would indicate that it can. If not, is this something that could be added?

No, it doesn't handle ACLs. I didn't have the need.
I think it could be done, but that would be a major rewrite, especially for the "database".
I don't have interest in this, so it would have to be done by someone else.

Just curious, why do you use the post-checkout hook, instead of post-merge
to restore permissions?

Actually, I'm using both. I added a post-merge hook as a symlink to post-checkout. In the develop branch, there are more changes. But I'd have more tests to do before merging into the master branch.
