Unexpected "changed outs" on status, and "link type reflink is not available" on pull

It seems the documentation is out of date. The current value for files is indeed 0o444. I’ve created the PR to update it fix(config): update file mode in group shared cache by shcheklein · Pull Request #4796 · iterative/dvc.org · GitHub

Now, back to the issue.

I’ve tried to reproduce it locally (I’m using Mac), with this config:

[cache]
    dir = /tmp/test-cache
    shared = group
    type = hardlink

With a simple repo like this:

(.venv) √ Projects/test-cache % tree .
.
├── test.txt
└── test.txt.dvc

0 directories, 2 files

I can’t reproduce it.

Can you try it on a simpler repo? Can you also try to run ln /home/shared/dvc-cache/files/md5/88/712af9626d5cbba82007cf8e3f90b2 /opt/actions-runner/_work/some-repo/some-repo/some-data/some_file

Could you try to run it with a cache located inside /opt/actions-runner/ ? Could you also check the permissions of the /opt/actions-runner/_work/some-repo/some-repo/some-data directory?
