Umask to use when running the command. Negate this option or set
it to 0777 to preserve the user's umask. The actual umask that is
-used will be the union of the user's umask and C<@sudo_umask@>.
-This guarantees that B<sudo> never lowers the umask when running a
-command. Note on systems that use PAM, the default PAM configuration
-may specify its own umask which will override the value set in
-I<sudoers>.
