When I am using git over samba share on windows I get an error when i want to commit a file via git_extentions or tortoiseGIT. The error is: error: unable to write sha1 filename .git/objects/b4/e819f886bf31b67c42249a0eff8e8b16cf7622: Permission denied. When I add the file via the ubuntu server and commit the file it works fine. I am also working in a banrch.

I have already tryed chmod 777 the whole .git folder.

git ubuntu samba permission-denied

This issue has been seen before in some form or another for Git/Samba installations. Not sure if the source of the problem has been pin pointed yet:

Update:

looks like git v. 1.7.3.3 has resolved this issue.
