I tried to make a complete checkout from two different accounts (also
as not sirca from an oops machine) and it worked impeccably. I do not
think permissions of individual files are a problem, since no matter what
group the files belong to, they still all have at least -r--r--r--,
i.e. read for "others", which I know is sufficient from experience
from other repositories. The files should NOT have anything else
but -r--r--r--, and the directories should have -rwxrwxr-x.
But due to this last requirement, I would have to be group blast,
nor group man, so I will change it as Maurik proposed. Please try
again in a while.
