[PATCH v2 0/2] Don't make $GIT_DIR executable

[Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>]

Changes since v1 [1]:

* Check the chmod() return result in create_default_files(), as
  suggested by Torsten Bögershausen.

* Fix a comment typo found by Stefan Beller.

* Extend patch 2/2 to also clearing the executable bits when "git
  config --edit" is run.

* Add test cases to patch 2/2 that the executable bits really are
  cleaned up when they should be.

Thanks to Stefan Beller, Torsten Bögershausen, and Eric Wong for their
feedback about v1.

I have also pushed this series to my GitHub fork [2].

Please remember that this patch series applies to maint. This version
has a couple of conflicts with master; I have pushed my proposed
conflict resolution to GitHub [3], including a preparatory commit that
I recommend for master.
