Hi,

I am trying to get the file permissions using FsCrawler - `attributes_support: true`.  
But when I search, below are the file permissions that are appearing in the metadata.

```auto
"attributes" : {
            "owner" : "1000",
            "group" : "1000",
            "permissions" : 33204
          }

```

But the file in the repository has below details.

```auto
-rw-rw-r-- 1 <name> <name> 6265 Apr 20 14:27 labels212bce.csv

```

Could you please let me know why it is showing the numbers instead of names?  
Also will there be any possibility to show the permissions as `664` instead of `33204`(don't know what this means though!)  
Please let me know how to get the correct details..

Thank you!!

-Lisa

Could you open a feature request for the first question?

For the second about permission 664, it looks like a bug to me. Could you open an issue?  
On which OS FSCrawler is running?
