This should restrict access to the group - but at the filesystem
level, so Apache won't be able to serve that download area.

You can either:

- have members access the download area through SFTP only

- add some ACLs ('setfacl') to the download area so that
  Apache/'www-data' can read it even if it's not part of the project
  group

- make the project public and implement a replication of the group
  members list to a .htpasswd file

Possibly there are other ways.

Private projects are not common in our setups so I can't say there's
an official way to do it :)
