I'm about 90% sure the issue he's having is that the write bit for
other/world goes away and he is neither the user dev or the group dev
and the reason for all the executable bits is that he is regularly
running

    chmod -R 777 .

Justin, if this is true, I will tell you that git respects your umask
but I just can't bring myself to really suggest someone type umask 000
ever. :(
