managing file ownership re: vagrant ssh/drush

[tannerjfco]

So drupal-nfs works pretty damn well for me, and I encounter no permissions fun manipulating files from my host. I do, however, run into permission issues using drush via vagrant ssh, which runs as the vagrant user and can't manipulate files the files that are all owned by www-data unless i sudo. Is there a good way to address this?

Yeah, we have noticed that to, we manage that issue by running things as sudo.

So when logged in sudo su

or run them as sudo. sudo drush cc all

Would something like ACL and/or umask help with this? I installed the ACL package and gave this a go on the files directory, it helped a migration to process, though it still had some permission errors after trying to set permissions on the files:

setfacl -R -m d:u:www-data:rwx,u:www-data:rwx,d:u:vagrant:rwx,u:vagrant:rwx files

Error:

WD file: The file permissions could not be set on public://pages

If we could get the file ownership to be kept as the www-data user, this could probably work. Maybe this and a umask could achieve this, but I'm not overly familiar with umask to be honest.
