Since the setgid bit would only mean "do what you were going to do
already", it's better to avoid setting it.  Accordingly, ever since
v1.5.5-rc0~59^2 (Do not use GUID on dir in git init --share=all on
FreeBSD, 2008-03-05), git on true FreeBSD has done exactly that.  Set
DIR_HAS_BSD_GROUP_SEMANTICS in the makefile for GNU/kFreeBSD, too, so
machines that use glibc with the kernel of FreeBSD get the same fix.

Sorry to have taken so long to send this one out.  Anyway, it seems
to me like the right thing to do.  Petr, what do you think?

Thanks for looking it over.

Sorry, this is very confusing. Are JN and PS one and the same person?
