Hi,

I have checked in my MDB-Gulp_4.19.0 directory into our source control system, Perforce. Upon checking out all files under .../MDB-Gulp_4.19.0/dist folder, when I run 'gulp mdb-pro', it started up fine; however, as soon as I made a change to _custom-skin.scss file, I got errors for some of the .css files under 'dist/css' and 'dist/css/modules'.

For example: [Browsersync] Serving files from: ./dist [14:55:46] Starting 'css-compile'... [14:55:46] Starting 'css-compile-modules'... [14:55:46] Finished 'css-compile-modules' after 24 ms [14:55:46] Starting ''... Browserslist: caniuse-lite is outdated. Please run next command npm update [14:55:47] The following tasks did not complete: , css-compile, [14:55:47] Did you forget to signal async completion? events.js:292 throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event ^

Running 'npm update' did nothing to get rid of the error. After hours of debugging and investigation, it turned out that prior to running 'gulp mdb-go', the files checked out from Perforce had the usual '-rwxrwx---+ 1 Domain Users 810866 Jan 28 15:24 animations-extended.css' file permission. After changing _custom-skins.scss and getting the above error, the file permission was changed to: '-r-xr-x---+ 1 Domain Users 75348 Jan 28 21:30 animations-extended.css' for all .css files checked out under 'dist/css'. We have used Perforce for many years w/o any problem so I suspect Gulp is doing this. How can we get Gulp to stop changing file permission from read-write to read? It is impossible to compile _custom-*.scss files and auto-generate .css files when the files are checked into the source controls system. If the files are not under source control, Gulp will not produce errors and file permissions are unchanged(all remain read-write). Any suggestion is much appreciated.
