We have quite a few documentation fixes accumulated on the maint branch;
perhaps a new maintenance release 1.6.2.3 mid next week.
On the 'master' front, there are currently 6 topics cooking in 'next', all
of which look quite good. I'll probably tag 1.6.3-rc0 this weekend with
most of these topics and keep cooking the rest for 1.6.4 cycle.

This documentation update is needed to reflect the recent changes where
"core.sharedRepository = 0mode" was changed to set, not loosen, the
repository permissions.

It just hit me that after fixing the main problem, we never clarified
the docs (that were fairly confusing to begin with). I hope this version
is both correct and understandable.
Have fun! :)
