Description

Hello, the Homebrew Cask install is encountering a permission that seems to be on the MacDown side.

`cp: /var/folders/17/5mc7816d3mndxjqgplq6057w0000gn/T/d20200403-3633-1mf57wp/MacDown.app/./Contents/_CodeSignature: Permission denied`

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Homebrew Cask installation and inspecting the MacDown.app Contents/_CodeSignature permission failure shown in the report. Done means the cask installs MacDown successfully without this permission error; the issue does not name a source file or test to inspect.
