Error for incorrect .git permissions is quite opaque

Error for incorrect .git permissions is quite opaque

Agreed. Do you have crashfile for this, so we can see the call stack.

Which rugged version are you running (gem list|grep rugged).

[ytti]

I get this error on debug:

Failed to make directory '/home/ytti/.config/oxidized/oxidized.git/objects': Permission denied
/var/lib/gems/2.1.0/gems/oxidized-0.3.0/lib/oxidized/output/git.rb:75:in `init_at': Failed to make     directory '/home/ytti/.config/oxidized/oxidized.git/objects': Permission denied (Rugged::OSError)

Without debug:
Failed to make directory '/home/ytti/.config/oxidized/oxidized.git/objects': Permission denied

Which I think is good enough.
[[email protected] ~/.config/oxidized]% gem list|grep -i rugged
rugged (0.21.0)

I tested by doing
'sudo chown root oxidized.git'

Can you repro your bad warning message on 0.21.0, if so, how?

Debugging some more. I've found if the repo already exists but is owned by another user it fails with this error. I did this by backupping my current directory; chown -R will * on the respository.

rugged (0.21.2) here.

In my test

1. having repo owned by another user => reasonable error message
2. having write to repo AND read to repo/config but NOT to other files => unreasonable error message
