Re: [git] error: insufficient permission for adding an object to repository database

The repo is set up as a shared repository.

kmoir@build:/gitroot/platform/eclipse.platform.debug.git> git config -l
core.repositoryformatversion=0
core.filemode=true
core.bare=true
core.sharedrepository=1

We have seen similar errors on Mylyn when committers used the http

/gitroot/platform/eclipse.platform.debug.git/objects this might be a
different problem though. It doesn't look like the repository was
properly setup as a shared repository.

I would recommend asking the webmaster to fix file and directory permissions.


And as well/after the permissions are reset, make sure that the
git.eclipse.org repo has the shared repo flag set:

core.sharedrepository=1
