chattr modifier target...Change the attributes and/or type of targets. modifier specifies what to modify.
See attributes for a description of each attribute.
Add attributes by specifying them or their abbreviations directly, optionally
prefixed with a plus sign (+). Remove attributes by prefixing them or their
attributes with the string no or a minus sign (-). The available attribute
modifiers and their abbreviations are:
| Attribute modifier | Abbreviation |
|---|---|
after | a |
before | b |
empty | e |
encrypted | none |
exact | none |
executable | x |
external | none |
once | o |
onchange | none |
private | p |
readonly | r |
remove | none |
template | t |
The type of a target can be changed using a type modifier:
| Type modifier |
|---|
create |
modify |
script |
symlink |
The negative form of type modifiers, e.g. nocreate, changes the target to be
a regular file if it is of that type, otherwise the type is left unchanged.
Multiple modifications may be specified by separating them with a comma (,).
If you use the -modifier form then you must put modifier after a -- to
prevent chezmoi from interpreting -modifier as an option.
