The permissions are set to reading for all and writing for you(r user)
and your group. This should be no problem with standard git commands.
Before you had the index file executable, why would you need that?

I'm about 90% sure the issue he's having is that the write bit for
other/world goes away and he is neither the user dev or the group dev
and the reason for all the executable bits is that he is regularly
running

   chmod -R 777 .

Justin, if this is true, I will tell you that git respects your umask
but I just can't bring myself to really suggest someone type umask 000
ever. :(


Justin,

If you really want a repository that's writable by everyone, why not just do "git config core.sharedRepository 0666" ?

If you just want them to be group-writable you may be happier with "git config core.sharedRepository true" or possibly "git config core.sharedRepository all". The setting is described fully in "git help config".
