Description & Comments:
Is it possible to add a setup specific property if the version control should store owners and file rights so then when you checkout a file you get the exact same attributes as when it was checked in ?

Fossil only preserves the execute permission bit on unix. Attributes for windows files are not preserved.

What attributes do you think are useful to preserve in a version control system and why?

There was some discussion of this on the MailingList about a year ago, the result of which was a change to store execute-permission only (not explicitly versioned). People will need to be persuaded on this one, so if you could explain why you need it...

you may want to look into fsvs, http://fsvs.tigris.org/.
