- 'group' (or 'true'): Make the repository group-writable, (and g+sx, since
|
||||
the git group may be not the primary group of all users).
|
||||
This is used to loosen the permissions of an otherwise safe umask(2) value.
|
||||
Note that the umask still applies to the other permission bits (e.g. if
|
||||
umask is '0022', using 'group' will not remove read privileges from other
|
||||
(non-group) users). See '0xxx' for how to exactly specify the repository
|
||||
permissions.
|
||||
|
||||
- 'all' (or 'world' or 'everybody'): Same as 'group', but make the repository
|
||||
readable by all users.
|
||||
|

- '0xxx': '0xxx' is an octal number and each file will have mode '0xxx'
|
||||
Any option except 'umask' can be set using this option. '0xxx' will
|
||||
override users umask(2) value, and thus, users with a safe umask (0077)
|
||||
can use this option. '0640' will create a repository which is group-readable
|
||||
but not writable. '0660' is equivalent to 'group'.
|
||||
- '0xxx': '0xxx' is an octal number and each file will have mode '0xxx'.
|
||||
'0xxx' will override users' umask(2) value (and not only loosen permissions
|
||||
as 'group' and 'all' does). '0640' will create a repository which is
|
||||
group-readable, but not group-writable or accessible to others. '0660' will
|
||||
create a repo that is readable and writable to the current user and group,
|
||||
but inaccessible to others.

By default, the configuration flag receive.denyNonFastForwards is enabled
