The "dontchmod" preference is supposed to be used with the "perms"
preference set to 0. In this case, no exception is raised.
If Unison does not fail when the on-disk permissions are not the one
it expects, then it will report a spurious permission change every
time it is run afterwards (and a spurious conflicts if the file is
ever modified on the other side).
Maybe the "dontchmod" preference should implies perms=0?
Regards,
