That perhaps might be the explanation for the bad behaviour. The ref is being
updated in git-cvsserver by writing the new head hash into the lockfile then
doing
unlink($reffile);
rename($lockfile, $reffile);
The lockfile is made with whatever umask is in place, so the
sharedrepository=group is being ignored. The solution then is to use the
permissions of the existing reffile when creating the lockfile.
Thanks Johannes. One little sentence and it all becomes clear :-)
