I'd really _love_ a tool that does all that what you've proposed
above! But why does it have to be "git-info" or anything in the
git(7) suite for that matter? This sounds like a job for a
different specialised tool, long with ".metatags" kind of files
dispersed in the source tree.
To automatically move (and delete) the meta-data alongside the
files themselves is a reason.
More generally -- shouldn't it? This is about source management
(well, maybe more about project management, but...) and the source
code management tool looks to be the right place for that. The
different parts of git are somewhat/fairly stand-alone as is, no?
If you were going to do that I'd just suggest making git aware of the
"user.*" extended attributes and having it save those into the git
repo along with the permission data.
Cheers,
