git /objects directory created 755 by default?

Junio,

Since git changed to creating the objects subdirectories "on demand",
these are created 755 regardless of the user's umask. This is quite
inconvenient in ("cvs style") team-shared repositories, which work
great otherwise.

Didn't find any relevant discussion in the archives... I am not sure
if this is by design. In any case it is something we could work around
with a post-update hook on the server side (and I'd be happy to
document).

cheers,
