I've tested with mock directories, but also just a proper e3sm-unified test now. I has a successfull test deployment on pm-cpu, but I killed the script before the permission could be updated. Ran with this branch rebased onto update-to-2.0.0.

Everything looks as expected:

Updating file permissions for: /pscratch/sd/a/anolan/e3sm_unified_1_12_0rc2
100%|██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████| 532333/532333 [07:06<00:00, 1249.35item/s]
Updating file permissions for: /pscratch/sd/a/anolan/test_e3sm_unified_1.12.0rc2_pm-cpu.sh
Updating file permissions for: /pscratch/sd/a/anolan/test_e3sm_unified_1.12.0rc2_pm-cpu.csh

And the permissions look correct:

ls -ld /pscratch/sd/a/anolan/*e3sm_unified*
drwxr-xr-x 3 anolan e3sm 4096 Oct 22 13:37 /pscratch/sd/a/anolan/e3sm_unified_1_12_0rc2
-rw-r--r-- 1 anolan e3sm 1904 Oct 23 07:27 /pscratch/sd/a/anolan/test_e3sm_unified_1.12.0rc2_pm-cpu.csh
-rw-r--r-- 1 anolan e3sm 2020 Oct 23 07:27 /pscratch/sd/a/anolan/test_e3sm_unified_1.12.0rc2_pm-cpu.sh

With that complete I'll merge.
