RedHat Find only files/directories with different permissions/owners
My git post-update has the following lines in it to make sure the permissions are set right:

Code:
find /usr/local/apache/htdocs -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 755
find /usr/local/apache/htdocs -type f -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 644
chown -R apache:apache /usr/local/apache/htdocs

The only problem is that each git update takes some time as it chmod's each and every file on the web server. So I'm assuming the fastest thing would be to only chmod only the files that have different permissions and only chown the files that aren't apache:apache.

How would I rewrite the three lines above to make that change? Many thanks.

logindevperm(4)                                                    File Formats                                                    logindevperm(4)

NAME

       logindevperm, fbtab - login-based device permissions

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/logindevperm

DESCRIPTION

       The  /etc/logindevperm  file  contains  information  that is used by login(1) and ttymon(1M) to change the owner, group, and permissions of
       devices upon logging into or out of a console device. By default, this file contains lines for the keyboard, mouse, audio, and frame buffer
       devices.

       The owner of the devices listed in /etc/logindevperm is set to the owner of the console by login(1). The group of the devices is set to the
       owner's group specified in /etc/passwd. The permissions are set as specified in /etc/logindevperm.

       Fields are separated by TAB and/or SPACE characters. Blank lines and comments can appear anywhere in the file; comments start with a  hash-
       mark, ` # ', and continue to the end of the line.

       The first field specifies the name of a console device (for example, /dev/console). The second field specifies the permissions to which the
       devices in the device_list field (third field) will be set.  These permissions must be expressed in octal format.  For  example,  O774.   A
       device_list  is  a  colon-separated list of device names.  Note that a device name must be a /dev link.  A device entry that is a directory
       name and ends with "/*" specifies all entries in the directory (except "." and ".."). For example, "/dev/fbs/*" specifies all frame  buffer
       devices.

       Once the devices are owned by the user, their permissions and ownership can be changed using chmod(1) and chown(1), as with any other user-
       owned file.

       Upon logout the owner and group of these devices will be reset by ttymon(1M) to owner root and root's group  as  specified  in  /etc/passwd
       (typically other). The permissions are set as specified in the /etc/logindevperm file.

FILES

       /etc/passwd     File that contains user group information.

SEE ALSO

       chmod(1), chown(1), login(1), ttymon(1M), passwd(4)

NOTES

       /etc/logindevperm provides a superset of the functionality provided by /etc/fbtab in SunOS 4.x releases.

SunOS 5.10                                                          22 Oct 2003                                                    logindevperm(4)
