[Tutor] Permission Report

Hello all,
I have a tree of code on a machine which has been tweaked and fiddled
with over several months, and which passes tests.
I have the same codebase in a new virtual machine. A shell hack[0]
shows me that the permissions are very different between the two.
I could use rsync or something to synchronise them, but I would like
to produce a report of the sort:
Change file: foo from 755 to 775
So I can try to work out why this is necessary.
I'm not sure how best to proceed - I guess walk through the filesystem
gathering info using stat, then do the same on the new system, and
compare.
Or are there some clever modules I could use?
S.
