1.5.3. Permissions with chmod

[mfisher5]

I'm connecting to farm using git bash on Windows, and I can't seem to get chmod to change permissions for the config file and ssh folder.

I'm running section 1.5.3 of the documentation. (" For example, to set correct permissions on ~/.ssh/config: chmod u=rw,go= ~/.ssh/config ")

$ ls -l ~/.ssh

-rw-r--r-- 1 AD3+marfishe 2147484161   72 Nov 26 14:37 config
