Hi, all.

We have a repo on a corporate server. The sysadmin changed access
rights of files on our repo by accedant.
Some directories have 2750 acces rights before, but he changed as

chmod -R 2770 *

Now when you make git status, every file that is tracked by git is said as

changed but not updated

So is there a way to get this back to normal ?

TIA

Am I correct in guessing that this is not a bare repo?

I assume the correct permissions for your tracked files should be 2750? 
  If so, then here's what I would do:

1.  First make a copy of your repo and test these steps on the copy:

e.g.  bare repo:  cp -rvp repo.git repocopy.git
non-bare-repo:  cp -rvp worktree worktreecopy

2. Then cd to the parent of the objects dir in you git repo:

e.g.  bare repo:  cd repocopy.git
non-bare repo:  cd worktreecopy/.git

3.  Then change the permissions of your objects dir:

chmod -R 2750 objects

4.  Validate the results.  Your permissions should match again.

5.  If it worked, then do it on the real repo.


v/r,
Neal
