Sign upbpo-15795: Preserve permissions on UNIX (based/like) systems #17790
Conversation
The reasoning behind this is that the unzip command (Info-ZIP) on pretty much every unix system will preserve the permissions by default. The Info-ZIP unzip command is shipped with all currently supported versions of: - MacOS - OpenBSD and NetBSD - Probably every manjor Linux distribution Here is a list: https://pkgs.org/download/unzip

In this pull request the permissions are only preserved if a zip file is extracted on a posix system and the zipfile was made on a UNIX system. Permissions are also set for directories.
