As Marc said, you should first make sure that "config" contains "sharedrepository = 1" in the "[core]" section. Then you can do the following: - remove all permissions for "others": chmod -R o-rwx . - mirror "user" permissions to "group": chmod -R g=u . - add +s flag to directories: find . -type d | xargs chmod g+s This should fix your current situation. The "sharedrepository = 1" will tell git to maintain a proper shared state in the future on objects it creates (i.e. mirror "user" permission to "group" ones).
