I can see that you have, and I appreciate that. I was vaguely feeling guilty about *causing* all that extra effort, because I think it is a bit of a waste of time. I sincerely believe there is *no* place for shared setups [1] these days, however common they may be. In fact, if I didn't already believe so, your last few emails would have convinced me! I'm amazed to learn in this thread that people apparently even *push* in such setups! [1] not just "upload-pack runs as invoking user" but also other settings like liberal umask, (which you mentioned) and so on. > As for your kludge, I took a peek at gitpod.

I wasn't happy at first but now I'm fine with it. -- Sitaram -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
