Actually, I did not, push fails.

The root-cause, AFAICS, is that when Brian pushes there, files and
directories in .git/objects/ get created without "write" group
permissions. So I cannot create new objects.

I _think_ this is because of Brian's umask. If Brian could set it to
'002', that would not happen.

Brian or David, would you please fix-up the permissions and add g+w? Is
there a way to force g+w, I wonder? I am not aware of such...
