Author synchronize write-protected files

I know that theoreticly synchronization is not a backup. But it best fit
to the backup topic.

There is a write-protected file (e.g. under Win32):
C:\file1.dat (write-protected)
and a older version of it (from a older synchronization):
X:\file1.dat (write-protected)

No I want to sync the old copy on X with the new one on C. What happen
then in normal sync-software? Normaly I can not overrite the
write-protected file on X. But is it a normal behavior if the
sync-software remove the write-protection temporary to synchronize this
two files?

Another case:
What would happen if the file on X is write-protected but the newer on C
is not. Is it normal that the sync-software can remove the
write-protection from the X-file to overwrite it with the newer file from C?
