Re: [PATCH v2 1/3] read-cache: use shared perms when writing shared index

> Since f6ecc62dbf (write_shared_index(): use tempfile module, 2015-08-10)
> write_shared_index() has been using mks_tempfile() to create the
> temporary file that will become the shared index.

> But even before that, it looks like the functions used to create this
> file didn't call adjust_shared_perm(), which means that the shared
> index file has always been created with 600 permissions regardless
> of the shared permission settings.
