This is a super-simple extension that provides commands equivalent to
chmod +x and chmod -x.
This extension adds a context menu item for setting or clearing the executable bits on an individual file. Which context menu depends on your operating system.
On Windows, use the file context menu in the Source Control Activity View.
To clear the executable bits, hold down Alt or Shift when right-clicking.
NOTE: Since Windows doesn't have the notion of POSIX file permissions, git
is used to add and remove the executable bits. As a side-effect, an untracked
file must be added to the git index in order to set the executable bits.
On other operating systems, use the file context menu in the Explorer Activity
View. File system permissions are modified just as if running chmod in a
terminal.
