Several things can cause this:
- You are running cvsup with a different umask than usual. To guard
against this, you can add a "umask=022" setting in your supfile
(CVSup-16.0 and later).
- You are running cvsup under a different user-id than usual. This
probably has no effect unless you have "preserve" in your supfile.
That's almost always a bad idea except for special situations.
- You've accidentally touched all the files in your repository in
some way (changed their modtimes, changed their permissions, changed
their owners, etc.).
