RepairPermissions 2.0.1

Since the repairPermissions verb was discarded in the new DiskManagement.framework of OS X El Capitan, I wrote a new version of RepairPermissions command line tool.

Introduction:

RepairPermissions is an easy command line tool to repair the permissions of an OS X system volume.

It also supports repairing permissions on OS X El Capitan's whole disk.

Supported OS:

OS X El Capitan (10.11.x)

OS X Yosemite (10.10.x)

OS X Mavericks (10.9.x)

Usage:

RepairPermissions targetVolume

where targetVolume is a valid mount point of an OS X system partition such as /Volumes/Mac

Notes:

0. RepairPermissions should be placed at /usr/local/bin (especially under OS X El Capitan) if you want to use RepairPermissions directly from OS X' Terminal.

1. You can ONLY repair the permissions on the current root volume if RepairPermissions is used in single-user mode.

2. Feel free to rename it to a shorter name like rp.

3. TABLES: ALLOWED OPERATIONS

(In general: You can ONLY repair the permissions on OS X El Capitan under OS X El Capitan.)
