Jean-Pierre Fiset commented on MASSEMBLY-442:
---------------------------------------------
It might be very useful to simply add the option to create tarballs with
"--owner=root --group=root", since this is what every project needs.
I do not think it is necessary to add a lot of code to support specific uids
and gids. I am not sure how useful that would be.
For my own case, if the plugin created by default tarballs with root/root, it
would be great.
> no way to avoid using detected user/group information for files and
> directories in tarballs
