Probably your umask is doing this? When you locally create a file (e.g. "touch foo"), does it then only have "-rwx------" as well?

Have a look at the "--shared" option of "git init". That's supposed to create shared repositories, i.e. all users of the same group have write access. I'm not exactly sure how to make an existing repo "shared" after it's been created, but

$ git config core.sharedrepository 1

(which modifies .git/config) and a reasonable chown/chmod -R afterwards should work.

Hope this helps,
