Access denied on Windows7 64bit

Tue Nov 20 07:10:26 PST 2012

After reading this, I think I vaguely remember someone saying something 
about creating the directory in cygwin, not explorer. I did an 
experiment based on this. Using explorer, I created a directory 
"testdir" in c:\. I then opened a cygwin terminal and CDd into it and 
did a hg clone. Both c:\testdir and all the files I cloned showed 
permissions in cygwin as ---------+. Then, in the cygwin terminal, I 
created c:\testdir2 and cloned in there. All the files in there got 
-rwxr-xr-x+. It seems that could be the solution.
