The term 'shared' used here is in the same context with git init.
Unfortunately the 'shared' option has been taken, so I took the "perm"
as a place holder in this patch. Any comments?
I think it would make sense to add "perm" to git-init too (and possibly
deprecate --shared).
Agreed. After we teach everybody on this planet that "perm" means
"shared", and "shared" does not.
Or instead of teaching everybody on this planet that "shared" means "set
permissions for sharing" in one context, and "use hard links and set up
.git/objects/info/alternates, which by the way may be dangerous" in
another. :-)
But you made me think, and maybe it is better to remove argument-less
--shared instead. What Roy introduced seems much more useful in practice.
