-## New built-in option install_umask with a default value 022
-
-This umask is used to define the default permissions of files and directories
-created in the install tree. Files will preserve their executable mode, but the
-exact permissions will obey the install_umask.
-
-The install_umask can be overridden in the meson command-line:
-
- $ meson --install-umask=027 builddir/
-
-A project can also override the default in the project() call:
-
- project('myproject', 'c',
- default_options : ['install_umask=027'])
-
-To disable the install_umask, set it to 'preserve', in which case permissions
-are copied from the files in their origin.
