Yeah, I didn't consider the mode impact of using mkstemp. That is definitely a regression that should be fixed. Though of course if you really do want 0644, you should set your umask to 0022. :) > It says: "Let's instead switch to using a unique tempfile via mkstemp." > Reading man mkstemp: "The file is created with permissions 0600". > So, that's it.

If you haven't set core.sharedrepository, then adjust_shared_perm is a noop. But you shouldn't have to do that. Git should just respect your umask in this case. > Hope this issue can be addressed. Patches to follow. Thanks for the report.
