I just triple-checked, and both those things are already in place.  The
default umask is 0022, and all the config files have:
[core]
        repositoryformatversion = 0
        filemode = true
        sharedrepository = true

I see that the case of the value is different from what you typed:
SharedRepository 
Is that significant (as almost everything is)?

You can either make sure that people have something like

	umask 0022

in their bashrc (or that it's the default umask), so that they do things

world-readably by default.

Or add
	[core]
		SharedRepository = true

to the repository config file.
