that, at least on base POSIX, using --shared to share a repository

I do not think the world is _that_ blank-and-white. If you cannot
trust those who push to the repository, you can give them git-only
access without a shell account and keep separating them with UIDs.
If you can, then the --shared setting is suitable for you.
