'Unsupported operand' when giving modes in 'put()'

[bitprophet]

E.g.: in a call like put(StringIO(xxx), yyy, mode="0755") (emphasis is on mode string, not the StringIO, which is incidental):

Fatal error: put() encountered an exception while uploading '<StringIO.StringIO instance at 0x9ddfa8>'

Underlying exception:                                                                                 
    unsupported operand type(s) for &: 'str' and 'int'                                                

Aborting.                                                                                             

Problem is that whoever added the mode stuff is blindly doing lmode & 07777 which dies whenever lmode is a string. Casting to an int appears to work fine for me in the shell, regardless if one gives e.g. "755", "0755", "00755" etc.

Many thanks for the fix but I think it needs to be extended to handle the case when mode is passed in as an int or a string. Sorry for posting a diff, I know bad form.

         # Handle modes if necessary
         if (local_is_path and mirror_local_mode) or (mode is not None):
             lmode = os.stat(local_path).st_mode if mirror_local_mode else mode
-            lmode = lmode & 07777
+            if type(lmode) is str:
+                lmode = int(lmode, 8) & 07777
+            else:
+                lmode = lmode & 07777
