Description.
When I am backing up windows server files, the source directory d:/ has custom permissions. For example; Folder A Team A read-write; Team B read-only.
When I sync the source directory d:/ to f:/, the d:/ custom permissions are lost.
This faces a problem that when my source directory disk goes bad, I have no way to quickly replace the disk because I have to reset the folder permissions, which causes a lot of work.
Please add the copy file/folder permissions feature! Thanks. Great project!

I do, for now.
XCOPY d:\foder f:\foder /X /K /T /E /O
/X Copies file audit settings (implicit /O).
/K Copies attributes. Normal Xcopy resets the read-only attribute.
/T Creates a directory structure, but does not copy files. Does not include empty directories or subdirectories. /T /E Includes empty directories and subdirectories.
/E Copies directories and subdirectories, including empty directories. Same as /S /E
/O Copies file ownership and ACL information.

It would be great if freegoodsync could integrate the permission copy feature
