chmod 2775 dirname

 Hello all:

 I am managing an unusual situation where we need to have several
 developers working on the same directory tree.  Essentially I am using
 CVS as a logging mechanism, and to track revisions, but the software
 in question will only work in one place (don't ask).

 The problem is that each time I check something in, CVS changes the
 file's permissions to 755, so that my teammates can't change it.
 How do you control this behavior?

 I believe this behavior is also responsible for occasional up-to-date
 check failed messages.  Since there is only one developer tree, there
 are no other versions of these files to change.  These messages, I
 assume, are also caused by an owner or permission mismatch.

 Any advice?

 Many thanks,

 -tom

use directories setgid bit to ensure files checked in will stay 
group-writable.
