Controlling permissions

[Brad Schick]

I should note that I'm concerned about the files inside the actual
repository under .hg not the working directory (since the wd isn't used).

Also, that was supposed to say "Short *of* changing". But maybe that's
the best solution. For example, adding "umask" setting to config files.

I guess I could run a hook after changegroups, that does 'chmod -R
g-rwx,o-rwx *' on the entire repo.  Seems ugly.
