How to control access permission with git

Question

I'm using a rental server from hostingrails.com , I operate Rails in FastCGI here, by the permissions that SuExec used, which were 755 it seems not to have been able to set permission.(For example, I can't use with 775)

I used git for development. I set it to 775 and cannot use the thing which I checked out of from git with the server to commit it with 755 in my PC(MacOSX) Could you Help me?

Answer 1

Do a chmod 755 file, then a git add file, and finally a git commit file. The permissions should be correct the next time you fetch the code.
