See also http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/13856/focus=13876 The essence of the thread: If you want to do anything useful in a non-bare repository, you are likely using other tools than git, which do not interpret core.umask or $GIT_DIR/umask. If you use a bare repository, just make it shared. No need for an umask.
