2# Desc: Applies chmod to a segment of a directory branch of the
3# filesystem tree. Changes applied to all directories starting with
4# TIP and ending with (but not including) TRUNK.
5
6# Usage: chmoddirbr [path TRUNK] [path TIP]
7# Input: arg1: TRUNK path
8# arg2: TIP path
9# arg3+ arguments to be passed on to chmod
10# Output: None.
11# Depends: GNU Coreutils 8.30 (chmod), Bash 5.0.3
12
13# Example: chmoddirbr /tmp /tmp/1/2/3/4/5/6 o+rx
14# This runs `chmod o+rx /tmp/1/2/3/4/5/6`
15# `chmod o+rx /tmp/1/2/3/4/5`
16# `chmod o+rx /tmp/1/2/3/4`
17# ...
18# `chmod o+rx /tmp/1`
