should a cp copied file retain original permissions?



Hi
zsh on cygwin on windows7


I frequently find that a file created by a copy (cp) has lost its permissions 
such that I need to chmod it to be able to edit it etc; sometimes requiring 
opening cygwin as windows administrator.

Is this normal?
