Hello,
I think file permissions are really important for source code as well.

For example, in web development, you want configuration files to be read only; specially if you're deploying with git.

Also, you would want some executable file to not be writable ; but executable by world.

Permission support would become really handy when using GIT_WORK_TREE on a bare repo.

Please, consider supporting them.
