Description Denis Roy CLA 2010-07-23 09:06:48 EDT 
In many of the git repos' objects directories, there is a pattern of specific userids owning world-writable directories.  Other userids don't own any.

In the wtp.incubator repo, some directories even lose their g+w permissions, leading to permissions errors.  See bug 320452.

It feels like either a client issue, or an environment issue.  I'll investigate.

Setting the sharedreposity setting seems to have fixed this.
