Description
The documentation is completely silent on the lack of symbolic file modes.
Steps to Reproduce the behavior
3005.1
: https://docs.saltproject.io/en/3005/ref/states/all/salt.states.file.htmllatest
: https://docs.saltproject.io/en/latest/ref/states/all/salt.states.file.html
Expected behavior
For example:
Lines 102 to 104 in b45c319
- Something like the following might be clearer:
Symbolic file modes are not supported. When using an octal file mode that includes a leading zero, you must wrap the value in single quotes. If the value is not wrapped in quotes, it will be read by YAML as an integer and evaluated as an octal number instead of an octal file mode.
