How can I remove that '@' character from the file permissions?
'@' in file permissions for Mac/OSX machines, is used to show that an extended attribute is set with this file.
chmod 755 galaxy-ansible.yml but that didn't help. echo | chmod -E galaxy-ansible.yml, didn't help (even with using sudo).xattr -d galaxy-ansible.yml, that didn't help either (even with using sudo).I even did the above operations as root user, still '@' character is not going away from file's permissions.
[arun@MacBook-Pro-2 ~/aks/anisble] $ ls -l@ galaxy-ansible.yml
-rwxr-xr-x@ 1 arun staff 270 Dec 22 12:31 galaxy-ansible.yml
com.apple.quarantine 67
My ~/aks folder is mapped to a CentOS vagrant box and if I'm on the vagrant box, doing ls -l doesn't give me '@' (as it's not a Max/OSX machine):
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 vagrant vagrant 270 Dec 22 00:12 galaxy-ansible.yml
On my Mac/OSX machine, there are other .yml files but those don't have '@' in the file permissions so I'm trying to remove '@' from galaxy-ansible.yml file (on Mac machine).
Right now the whole roles/.. folder has '@' character for any folder/files.

or
