-f Take the Acl_entries from ACL_FILE one per line. Whitespace characters are
ignored, and the character "#" may be used to start a comment. The special filename "-"
indicates reading from stdin. Note that you can use this with getfacl and setfacl to copy
ACLs from one file to another:
$ getfacl source_file | setfacl -f - target_file
Required entries are: one user entry for the owner of the file, one group entry for the
group of the file, and one other entry.
If additional user and group entries are given: a mask entry for the file group class of
the file, and no duplicate user or group entries with the same uid/gid.
If it is a directory: one default user entry for the owner of the file, one default group
entry for the group of the file, one default mask entry for the file group class, and one
default other entry.
-m Add or modify one or more specified ACL entries. Acl_entries is a
comma-separated list of entries from the same list as above.
-r Causes the permissions specified in the mask entry to be ignored and replaced by
the maximum permissions needed for the file group class.
-s Like -f, but substitute the file’s ACL with Acl_entries specified in a
comma-separated list on the command line.
While the -d and -m options may be used in the same command, the -f and -s options
may be used only exclusively.
Directories may contain default ACL entries. Files created in a directory that contains
default ACL entries will have permissions according to the combination of the current
umask, the explicit permissions requested and the default ACL entries
Limitations: Under Cygwin, the default ACL entries are not taken into account
currently.
