Documentation: update tar.umask default
As noted by Mike Hommey, the documentation for the config setting tar.umask
is not up-to-date. Commit f08b3b0e2e
changed
the default from 0 to 2; this patch finally documents it.

tar.umask::
|

By default, gitlink:git-tar-tree[1] sets file and directories modes
|

to 0666 or 0777. While this is both useful and acceptable for projects
|

such as the Linux Kernel, it might be excessive for other projects.
|
||||
With this variable, it becomes possible to tell
|
||||
gitlink:git-tar-tree[1] to apply a specific umask to the modes above.
|
||||
The special value "user" indicates that the user's current umask will
|
||||
be used. This should be enough for most projects, as it will lead to
|
||||
the same permissions as gitlink:git-checkout[1] would use. The default
|
||||
value remains 0, which means world read-write.
|
||||
This variable can be used to restrict the permission bits of
|

tar archive entries. The default is 0002, which turns off the
|

world write bit. The special value "user" indicates that the
|

archiving user's umask will be used instead. See umask(2) and

CONFIGURATION
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
By default, file and directories modes are set to 0666 or 0777 in tar
|
||||
archives. It is possible to change this by setting the "umask" variable
|
||||
in the repository configuration as follows :
|
||||
|
||||
[tar]
|
||||
umask = 002 ;# group friendly
|
||||
|
||||
The special umask value "user" indicates that the user's current umask
|
||||
will be used instead. The default value remains 0, which means world
|
||||
readable/writable files and directories.
