Commit message

Make .netrc 0600 in tests so python-2.7.5-8's netrc is happy.

Description of the change

See bug report for details, in a nutshell, starting with python-2.7.5-8, the
netrc module checks ~/.netrc permissions.

This leads to test failures as tests create it with default
permissions. Restricting to 0600 is enough to fix.

I had tried to fix this using bzrlib's osutils.chmod_if_possible which should be Windows safe AFAIK, but for some reason it doesn't seem to work for me.

.netrc on windows ? Well, nothing in the tests say that won't run on windows so I can fix that.

Still working here with chmod_if_possible (see

Weird, can you try my fix and confirms it works for you ?

I can confirm that your branch works as expected. (Not sure what I did wrong? I guess must have done something stupid as it was such an obvious fix...)

@Andrew: Thanks ! Yeah, should have been something obscure or testing the wrong thing may be ?
