Thanks for cleaning up my mess.  The patch looks correct to me.

I *think* --chmod is mainly thought of as a convenience for git users
on a filesystem that doesn't have an executable flag.  So it was
introduced this way as the permissions on the file system don't matter
in that case.  A change of that behaviour may make sense for this
though.
