I would consider that empty directories should be handled with a
".keep" file or the like, or proper "directory" resources.

The file permissions are goverened by the files_owner, files_group,
files_mode variables to the resource.

"Original" file permissions are not really possible, since the files
are stored as objects on Chef Server, not "files with permissions" -
so telling Chef what the permissions _should be_ is the way to go.

Sorry if this doesn't work for you, hope the tarball approach works.
