git server changes - how to allow https AND ssh now that /srv/git/xxx.git must be owned by http?

["David C. Rankin" <drankinatty@xxxxxxxxx>]

All,

  After recent git update, read only repos hosted on a local Apache server 
could no longer pull over https. (gitweb remained fine) Repositories closed 
read/write over ssh were fine.

  On the server the repositories under /srv/git were owned david:david (me). 
However, after the git change, git refused to serve over https unless the 
directories under /srv/git were owned by http.

  Fine, change made - but now repos cloned read/write over ssh fail because 
the directory under /srv/git is no longer owned by me.

  How do you make git repositories hosted on my local server allow clone/pull 
over https AND allow me to still close read/write over ssh?

  Catch 22,

unless /srv/git/xxx.git is http:http, https fails

unless /srv/git/xxx.git is david:http, ssh fails

  Anybody else caught be this?

  The server is configured per https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Git_server 
and the scm-git.com links.

  The "Note: Make sure that Apache can read and write to your repositories." 
seems incomplete. It's not just "read and write" it is "must own" for https 
and "can't own" for ssh? How to solve?
