[Vm-dev] FilePlugin can't delete files with 0444 permission on Windows

Hi.

Git creates it’s object files (the object database files) with permission 0444 (i.e. no write permissions). On OS X and Linux the VM is happy to delete those files but on Windows 7 the FilePlugin fails with a #primitiveFailed:.

Before I dive into the code and start fixing stuff I wanted to know if this is a known issue / unfixable problem.

Cheers,
Max
