[issue11202] Win32: shutil.move does not inherit permissions

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr> added the comment:

Intuitively, this seems rather normal to me. If I move a file under Unix, I don't expect its access rights or ownership to change. "Move" really means what it means: you have to update its permission explicitly if that's what you need (shutil.copystat() can help you with that, I think).
