title: Modifying subversion file permissions
body: <p>I saw <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1371824/svn-permissions-for-a-single-file">this question</a> but it does not help me. I checked in a file without the executable permission and now, every time I branch or checkout, the file is not executable.</p>
  
  <p>Some other files are indeed saved as executable. I'm guessing that it's because they had the executable bit during first check in--at least that's what my testing leads me to believe.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know of a better way to modify (or even at least view) the permissions that subversion has for a file or folder?</p>
